Skipping YYY (https://xxxxx@xxx:*****@github.com/XXX/YYY.git) since it's not initalized about python-github-backup HOT 9 CLOSED

What was YYY? Can you show me how to reproduce this with a new account?

from python-github-backup.

YYY would have been the name of repository which the script skips. Setting -P -F to pull forks of private repos returns the same error, and unfortunately makes this script not very useful with these features being non-functional.

@jon-f not useful for your specific use case, but still useful for others.

Do you want to make a pull request for that functionality?

from python-github-backup.

Sure, but aren't the -P and -F parameters existent as the script is supposed to give them function? Is anyone able to confirm whether they work at all?

from python-github-backup.

Probably, but I don't use that functionality and the functionality I do use works just fine. If you want this to get fixed, you're going to have to do the work, because I'm certainly not going to.

from python-github-backup.

lol.. Yeah I forked and will see if I can get it to work. Curious why you put the arguments in if the functionality didn't exist. When you first wrote the script did these arguments work?

from python-github-backup.

I didn't add the --fork option. Maybe the dev who contributed that didn't test private forks?

from python-github-backup.

Yeah...I think we're on to something. Thanks.

from python-github-backup.

I really hope that's not condescension on your part, as - given no one has been paid to work on this software - it's pretty unappreciated.

I look forward to your pull request. Will like this issue open until the issue has been fixed in master.
