umputun / github-backup-docker Goto Github PK

Hi! Thanks for the great image, I wanted the same :)

The only trouble is --output-directory=/srv/var/${DATE}/${u} line - it makes a new directory each time, so incremental backup

is not possible.

When you have over hundred repos, incremental backup is a must >_<
Can you add an option to disable date based directory?

I had a message: Authenticated user is different from user being backed up, thus private repositories cannot be accessed

What i can do for fix it?

Hello! Thanks for this tool 🤓

I found one minor problem — MAX_BACKUPS doesn't affect amount of backups on disk.

My docker-compose:

version: "2"

services:
  github-backup:
    image: umputun/github-backup:latest
    container_name: "github-backup"
    hostname: "github-backup"
    restart: always

    logging:
      driver: json-file
      options:
        max-size: "10m"
        max-file: "5"

    environment:
      - GITHUB_USER=...
      - TOKEN=...
      - MAX_BACKUPS=2
      - TIME_ZONE=Europe/Moscow
    volumes:
      - ./data:/srv/var

But, now I have 11 directories with backups in data.

Can you fix it? 🤗

I think it would be nice if backups were compressed.
In my single test it was about 20% smaller. Every bit counts, right?
