## Overview 

This action is designed to push commits made on a GitHub repository to a GitBucket repository whilst maintaining the original commit author and history. 

## Usage

Implementing this action is simple. Here is a step by step guide to get you started:

1. Create a new workflow file named `push-to-gitbucket.yml` in your `.github/workflows` directory.

```yaml

name: Mirror to GitBucket

on:

  push:

    branches:

      - "*"

jobs:

  mirror:

    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    steps:

      - name: Checkout repository

        uses: actions/checkout@v3

        with:

          fetch-depth: 0

      - name: Push to GitBucket

        env:

          # Set the GitBucket URL, username and password as secrets in your repository settings

          GITBUCKET_URL: "gitbucket.example.com/username/repo.git"

          GITBUCKET_USERNAME: ${{ secrets.GITBUCKET_USERNAME }}

          GITBUCKET_PASSWORD: ${{ secrets.GITBUCKET_PASSWORD }}

        run: |

          git config --global user.name "GitHub Actions"

          git config --global user.email "actions@github.com"

          git remote add gitbucket https://$GITBUCKET_USERNAME:$GITBUCKET_PASSWORD@$GITBUCKET_URL

          git push --mirror gitbucket

```

2. Replace the `GITBUCKET_URL` with the URL of your GitBucket repository. 

> [!NOTE]  

> Ensure that the URL does NOT contain the `https://` prefix. as this is added on line 27 of the workflow file.

3. Add the `GITBUCKET_USERNAME` and `GITBUCKET_PASSWORD` as secrets in your repository settings.

     - Navigate to your repository on GitHub.

     - Click on `Settings` tab.

     - Click on `Secrets and variables` in the left sidebar, then `Actions`.

     - Click on the green `New repository secret` button.

     -  Add the `GITBUCKET_USERNAME` and `GITBUCKET_PASSWORD` as secrets, with the values being your GitBucket username and password respectively.

4. Push the the new `push-to-gitbucket.yml` file to your GitHub repository and watch as your commits are mirrored to your GitBucket repository.
