Upstream Push Mirrors

What is push mirrors?

push mirrors refer to remote repositories that are set up to mirror the contents of another repository. When you perform a Git push to a push mirror, the changes you push to the mirror repository are automatically propagated to the mirrored repository, keeping them in sync.

Push mirrors are often used in distributed development environments where multiple teams or individuals work on the same codebase across different locations. They allow for redundancy, collaboration, and backup purposes. By using push mirrors, everyone can work on their local repositories and push their changes to a central mirror repository, ensuring that the changes are distributed to other team members or locations.

How to set upstream push mirrors?

Navigate to your repository, and click the setting icon beside your repository name.

What does Apigit support?

The Git repository is hosted on any of your specified git server which can be a popular platform such as Github, Gitlab, Bitbucket, Azure, AWS, Gitee, or even a self-hosted Git server with public access . APIGit employs a smart two-way synchronization with your remote repository, ensuring that all commits made on APIGit are automatically synchronized with your specified servers, and vice versa. Your designated Git repository acts as the authoritative source of truth.
