About gickup
gickup copies Git repositories from hosting services to places you control. Sources include GitHub, GitLab, Gitea, Gogs, Bitbucket, OneDev, Sourcehut and Radicle. Backups can go to a local folder, zip archives, S3, Azure Blob storage, WebDAV or another Git host.
Jobs are set in a YAML configuration file, and it can run on a schedule. It is written in Go and ships with a Dockerfile and a Docker Compose example, so it is easy to run as a long-lived container.
