mirror.js now keeps repo descriptions in step with GitHub. A new sync-issues workflow copies issues, PR conversations and comments onto the mirrors with GitHub's numbering. Shared API helpers move to gitea-mirrors.js. Every workflow now runs once a night, 1.5 hours apart. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# 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 | 05:00 (12 AM CDT) | `mirror.js` | Creates missing orgs and pull mirrors, syncs repo/org visibility, descriptions and org avatars |
|
|
| Sync releases to Gitea | 06:30 (1:30 AM CDT) | `sync-releases.js` | Copies GitHub releases (title, notes, assets) onto the mirrors |
|
|
| Rename deleted GitHub mirrors | 08:00 (3 AM CDT) | `rename-gone-mirrors.js` | Renames mirrors whose GitHub repo was deleted or moved to `<name>-goneN` and freezes them |
|
|
| Sync issues to Gitea | 09:30 (4:30 AM CDT) | `sync-issues.js` | Copies GitHub issues, PR conversations and their comments onto the mirrors |
|
|
|
|
Each runs once a day, 1.5 hours apart, so each one starts with a fresh hourly GitHub API budget. All can also be run by hand from the Actions tab. Each run posts a summary to ntfy through `notify.js`. `gitea-mirrors.js` holds the API helpers the two sync scripts share.
|
|
|
|
## 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](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/28817)).
|
|
|
|
## Issues on mirrors
|
|
|
|
Gitea drops issues for pull mirrors too, but the API still lets you create them. `sync-issues.js` copies them over through the API:
|
|
|
|
- Gitea issue numbers always match GitHub's, so `#N` in commits and comments points at the right thing:
|
|
- PRs become issues labelled `pull request`, closed or open like on GitHub. Only their conversation comes along, not code review comments or diffs.
|
|
- Numbers that aren't issues on GitHub (deleted, transferred, or used by a discussion) stay gaps on Gitea too. Gitea never reuses a deleted issue's number, so an issue that lands on a gap is deleted and made again until it gets GitHub's number.
|
|
- If Gitea's counter is already past a GitHub number, or `#N` on Gitea wasn't made by the sync, that repo stops with a failure instead of guessing.
|
|
- Everything is posted as the Gitea token user. Each issue and comment opens with a quoted line naming the GitHub author, the date, and a link back. The link is how comments are matched on later runs, so don't edit it away.
|
|
- Title, body, open/closed state, labels and comment edits follow GitHub. Nothing is deleted on Gitea.
|
|
- Images uploaded to GitHub stay as links to GitHub.
