About:
Gickup is a command-line tool designed to automate the backup of Git repositories from various hosting platforms like GitHub, GitLab, and Gitea. It allows users to mirror their repositories to a local machine or another remote location, ensuring code safety and availability. The tool supports configurable workflows, making it ideal for developers looking to safeguard their projects against data loss.
Key Features:
  • Supports multiple Git hosting platforms (GitHub, GitLab, Gitea, etc.)
  • Configurable backup destinations (local filesystem or remote Git server)
  • Automated mirroring via CLI or scheduled tasks
  • Handles both public and private repositories with authentication
Use Cases:
  • Automated daily backups of all personal and professional Git repositories
  • Migrating repositories between different Git hosting providers
  • Creating local mirrors for offline access or disaster recovery
Alternatives:
  • git-mirror – A simpler tool focused purely on mirroring, whereas gickup offers broader platform support and configuration options.
  • bash scripts with git clone/pull – Manual scripting lacks gickup's built-in multi-platform support, structured configuration, and error handling.
