Question - how to backup a private repository from an organisation. about python-github-backup HOT 8 CLOSED

Released 0.22.0.

from python-github-backup.

I believe the last argument should only be the organization name. If you want to back up a certain repo, you need to use

  -R REPOSITORY, --repository REPOSITORY

So maybe something like github-backup -u ${USER} -p ${PASSWORD} -O -P -R ${REPO} ${ORG}

from python-github-backup.

@whwright If I do that with CEDIA-models for ${ORG} I get github-backup: error: unrecognized arguments: CEDIA-models

This is the exact command : github-backup -u USER francoislauger -P --issues --issue-comments -R repo1 -O CEDIA-models

from python-github-backup.

I think this might be an order or arguments thing? I did this with success on an org/repo I have access to

↪ github-backup -t ${GITHUB_TOKEN} --issues --issue-comments -R ${REPO} -P ${ORGANIZATION}

from python-github-backup.

Now with :
github-backup -t ${GITHUB_TOKEN} -O --issues --issue-comments CEDIA-models

I can backup public folder of CEDIA-models. However when I try to backup private repository with:

github-backup -t ${GITHUB_TOKEN} -O --issues --issue-comments -P -R simul CEDIA-models

I got this warning:
Authenticated user is different from user being backed up, thus private repositories cannot be accessed

The token loggeg to francoislauger and I have full acces to CEDIA-models. I tried with and without the -O. Any idea?

This is a bug that was fixed in #103 and is in master branch, but has not been released to pypi.

@whwright Thank, I reinstall from github and it's working.

Note, the warning (Authenticated user is different from user being backed up, thus private repositories cannot be accessed) still there but seem to be ignore.

I think this can close now
