python-github-backup copies data out of GitHub so you keep your own copy. It can back up an entire organization, a single repository or a user account, including starred repositories, issues, wikis and other account data that a plain git clone does not capture.
It is a Python package run from the terminal and also ships a Dockerfile, which makes it easy to run on a schedule. It suits developers and organizations who want an independent archive of their GitHub data.
