Ask HN: Git Mirrors. Who's running one? What repos are you mirroring?
I started an effort a few months ago to mirror some essential git repos from github in case github ever goes down or microsoft decides to do some shenanigans.
What repos would you like to mirrored?
And do you know of any existing good mirrors out there that host good repos?
- eternityforest 11mo agoEverything has such a complex web of dependencies, how useful is mirroring a package without mirroring it's dependencies too? Are there automated tools for mirroring the whole tree?
- gooob 11mo agogood point. but yes i would say mirror the dependencies too. of course there are.
- pabs3 11mo agoThere are a couple of code archiving projects, SWH in particular has a large amount of GitHub repos: https://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/Codearchiver https://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/Codearchiver https://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/Software_Heritage https://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/Software_Heritage
