multipleof4andClaude Opus 5.5 43a054153c Copy GitHub releases onto Gitea mirrors

Gitea drops releases for pull mirrors, so a new cron/manual workflow
creates releases for tags already synced to Gitea, updates edited
notes, and streams missing assets. Adds a README.

README.md

gitea-github-cron

GitHub Actions that back up every GitHub repo I own (personal and org) to a self-hosted Gitea as pull mirrors.

Gitea version: 1.27.*

Workflows

Workflow	Schedule (UTC)	Script	Does
Mirror to Gitea	every 4h at :00	`mirror.js`	Creates missing orgs and pull mirrors, syncs repo/org visibility and org avatars
Sync releases to Gitea	every 4h at :30	`sync-releases.js`	Copies GitHub releases (title, notes, assets) onto the mirrors
Rename deleted GitHub mirrors	daily 08:00	`rename-gone-mirrors.js`	Renames mirrors whose GitHub repo was deleted or moved to `<name>-goneN` and freezes them

All three can also be run by hand from the Actions tab. Each run posts a summary to ntfy through notify.js.

Releases on mirrors

Gitea's migrate API drops releases: true for pull mirrors, so a mirror only gets bare tag entries. sync-releases.js fills in the real releases:

Matches releases by tag, creates missing ones, updates changed title/notes/prerelease, uploads missing assets by name.
Skips GitHub drafts.
Skips a release until its tag has reached Gitea through a mirror sync. Otherwise Gitea would create the tag on the default branch.
Streams each asset from GitHub straight into Gitea. Uploads are capped by [repository.release] FILE_MAX_SIZE (default 2048 MB, which matches GitHub's 2 GiB per-file limit) and need [attachment] ENABLED.
Skips frozen mirrors (sync interval 0).
Never deletes anything on Gitea.

This relies on Gitea ≥ 1.21.5, where a mirror sync only touches tag-only entries and keeps real releases (go-gitea/gitea#28817).
