How to Mirror a GitHub Repository

=================================

This repository contains an example workflow showing how to mirror a GitHub

repository to another remote repository.

1. In the remote repository, configure an access token that has the appropriate

   rights to push to the repository. (For example, on GitLab, the default

   configuration may be that only Maintainers are allowed to push to Protected

   branches, so you may need to change that.)

2. In your GitHub repository, go to the repository settings and create a new

   secret in "Actions secrets and variables" which holds the token for the

   remote repository.

3. Take the file `.github/workflows/github-mirror.yml` from this repository and

   adjust the URL so it points at the remote repository and includes the

   authentication information from the secret. **Do not** put any sensitive

   information in this file; put this into the secret instead.
