Show HN: Octarchive – Back up all repos on a GitHub account locally

6 pointsby pojntfxalmost 3 years ago
Hey HN! I just released Octarchive, a simple tool to back up all repos on a GitHub&#x2F;Gitea account to a local folder written in Go. If you&#x27;re worried about loosing your FLOSS work, but are can&#x27;t keep up with manually mirroring all the repositories, this might be the tool you&#x27;re looking for.<p>I&#x27;d love to get your feedback :)

Yes! This is needed since I was always worrying about “what if my account get banned”. It doesn’t mean I’ll violate some rules on purpose, just an worry of the ownership of data nowadays.<p>This tool looks helpful. Will give it a try.
