# GitHub Offline Backupper
|
|
|
|
This script automates the process of cloning and updating Git repositories. It reads a list of repository URLs from a text file, checks if each repository is already cloned in a designated directory, and performs an appropriate action: it clones the repository if it's not present, or it updates (fetches and pulls) the repository if it is already cloned.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
- **Automatic Cloning**: Clone repositories that are not already present in the target directory.
|
|
- **Repository Updates**: Fetch and pull updates for already cloned repositories.
|
|
- **HTTPS to SSH Conversion**: Converts HTTPS Git URLs to the SSH format on the fly.
|
|
- **Comment Support**: Allows for comments in the repository list file.
|
|
|
|

2. Make ``gitBackupper.sh`` executable with ``chmod +x gitBackuper.sh``
