I'm not sure what CI infrastructure is... is it a SaaSS?

The other way to create a gitlab mirror of a Savannah repository is no longer available at 0 cost from GitLab. See

Yesterday I learned that the other way to create a gitlab mirror of a Savannah repository
https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/repository/repository_mirroring.html#pulling-from-a-remote-repository-starter
MAY still be available for Free Software projects after 22 March 2020.
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/issues/10361#note_251410289

I would propose to wait until this date and then choose this solution, which does not require post-receive hooks on savannah, if it is really available.

Hmm, that's bad (the proprietary javascript in github).  What about gitlab?  Thats were we have the CI infrastructure...

I believe GitHub requires using proprietary JavaScript in order to register an account.  I don't think we may do that on behalf of Savannah.

Yes, that should work. Gitlab has the notion of "API tokens" but I don't know whether they allow "git push".

Hi ineiev.

As far as I can see we would need:

1. Savannah to open an account in github.com and gitlab.com, registering a public ssh key in both sites.
2. I will give savannah write access to the poke repos there.
3. You install post-receive hooks that will git push --mirror to the github and gitlab repos.

No files in the hook directories on Git server of Savannah have any reference to github; I'm not sure what to do.

Yes, that's the idea.

Oh indeed!

But then... I guess the gitlab.com/gnu-poke/ci-distcheck repo should be populated with the full poke repo?  I can add .gitlab-ci.yml in poke.git :)

Lets do that!

Only to github? If you do the same thing also with gitlab, you could have the CI integration on gitlab send you a mail within 10 minutes after a wrong commit.

Hello people!

I would need to add a post-receive hook to the poke.git repository, to mirror commits in github.com/jemarch/poke.

I think something like this should do the trick:
git push --mirror https://github.com/jemarch/poke.git

AFAIK coreutils has a similar setup.
I suppose I should add commit permission for some github user.  Please let me know.

Thanks!
