Overview

This repository contains some scripts I found useful for work with github as a platform, lower-level and more exploratory than using their CLI tools (recommended otherwise - but yet another dependency/install on a system…​)

For some more general nifty Git scripts see:

• https://github.com/jimklimov/git-scripts

• https://github.com/jimklimov/git-refrepo-scripts

For GitHub API aware build recipes, see:

• https://github.com/jimklimov/FTY - a "dispatcher repo" from 42ITy project I worked with, which maintains submodules for a (discoverable) horde of components and a set of `Makefile`s to build them on several platforms.

This script originated as a gist in https://gist.github.com/rodw/3073987 but I had some itches to scratch with it, so forked, and it grew…​

Now it can handle backups of both Orgs, Users and Gists over SSH (if keys are preloaded to SSH agent) or HTTP(S) protocols, and includes systemd unit wrappers (timer, service) to run regularly after you get it set up initially.

Hope this helps, Jim Klimov
