Archive

I have produced a lot of repositories. Most of which I will never look at again.

When the amount of repos we have is over 100, we should probably look to tidy them up - otherwise it looks sloppy.

I decided to push all of them into this Archive repository, while keeping my git commit history for each of them.

Any repository which I no longer wish to work on can be added to this collection.

Getting started

1. Ensure you have installed jmespath.

2. Ensure you have a github pa token with get and delete repo access (call it GITHUB_PA_TOKEN).

3. Run the get_repos command passing in the relevant github username:

./get_repos

This will create a repos.txt file. Edit this to include the repos you wish to archive.

4. Add repos to this archive with the archive_repos command:

./archive_repos

5. You can delete the archived repos from github by running:

./delete_repos

This will delete all repos which are in our archive directory.
