Wonder if there’s a docker to backup and update repos
Dunno about docker setup, but I mirror github repos I worry may disappear automatically using my self-hosted gogs instance. (Gitea/Forgejo likely also can do it). It's point-and-click, you just specify the github URL and check a box "this is a mirror".
Forgejo has an option to mirror a repository and update on a regular interval. It won't get wikis or issues though. I've got mine set up to mirror a bunch of decomps.
How do you do that without needing a pak for that repo?
Unless I am doing something Wong which is always likely.

You can easily mirror Github wikis as well. You just need to add
.wiki.gitto the repo URL. That way you can clone the wiki just like any other Git repo.Running Gitea and want to mirror worthwhile repositories, hence this post. :)
Yep and you can dictate the sync time. It's great.
Thanks! This is great to know.
@TeamAssimilation@infosec.pub Why did you report my comment???
I don’t recall reporting any comment today. Can I fix that if I reported it somehow?
Edit: shit, I see I used report instead of reply. Im sorry.
I figured it seems like a response not a report! Thanks for clarifying :)
I agree with cli command over docker. Sometimes docker is easier for the less informed though, me.
You triggered the independent thought alarm
