What is push mirrors?
A push mirror is a one-way sync: whenever your repository changes, APIGit forwards its commits, branches and tags to a remote repository, keeping that copy up to date.
Push mirrors are often used for backup and redundancy, and to keep a copy of an API repository on the Git platform that another team or partner uses. Your APIGit repository stays the source of truth.
How to set upstream push mirrors?
Push mirrors are available on the Enterprise plan. Navigate to your repository, open the Settings tab and go to Push Mirrors.
Click Add Push Mirror, then enter the remote address, how to authenticate, and the sync interval.
What does Apigit support?
You can add several push mirrors to one repository. The target can be a popular platform such as Github, Gitlab, Bitbucket, Azure, AWS, Gitee, or even a self-hosted Git server with public access. If you want your external server to be the source of truth instead, see two-way sync.
What problems may you face?
You might get an error message if you use username and password to set upstream push mirrors for github repository.
In this case, you need a access token.
