The code to mirror tryton from hg to git

Tryton - mercurial to git mirror

This package provides a wrapper around the hg-git library to mirror the tryton repositories to github. It uses the access token stored in ~/.config/mirror_token.

Using through CLI

It is possible to interact with the toolkit using the CLI bundled with this application.:

$ tryton_mirror

You can type help to see the list of commands available.

Using a cron to perform the tasks

A cron script which does all the required steps is also provided.

You can add a line like the one below to your crontab to execute this periodically.:

cd /path/to/cache/folder && tryton_mirror_sync

Note

The repo cache directories are (re)created in the current working directory. Therefore navigating to the folder before executing the command is very important.

I want to set this up on my own

To begin with, you can use the same mirroring to your private repos with probably a limited number of modules. Whatever the need may be, you can start by subclassing the CommandHandler class.

Adding a new repository

1. Create a new repo for the same on github.
2. Add a line to the repos list.
