Mirrors hgmo:comm-unified to Github

job-mirror-unified

A job to mirror hg repos via github action.

• https://hg.mozilla.org/comm-unified --> https://github.com/thunderbird/l10n-comm-unified

The action code is designed with Mercurial repositories such as Mozilla's mozilla-unified and comm-unified in mind as they publish the necessary bookmarks.

The only supported use of the action code in this repository is the temporary mirroring of comm-unified to Github.

Description

This project sets up a Github action under .github/actions/mirror-hgmo. The source code is under actions/mirror-hgmo, and was originally forked from mirror-hg-repo.

The action is triggered in the main workflow (.github/workflows/main.yml) either manually or by cron scheduling.

Like the original action, Mark Nauwelaerts' fork of git-remote-hg is used for the actual mirroring. It is simply included in this repository from https://github.com/mnauw/git-remote-hg rather than utilizing the copy used by upstream.

Like the original, a Github Personal Token with push access to the Github destination repository is needed.

This project also caches the working copy that it creates using actions/cache.

Action Inputs

• source-hg-repo-url: Required The clone URL of a Mercurial (hg) repository.
• source-hg-bookmarks: Required Space separated list of Mercurial bookmarks to mirror as Git branches
• destination-git-repo-owner: Required The owner of Github repository
• destination-git-repo-name: Required The name of the Github repository
• force-push: Run git push command with the --force flag. (default: false)
• path: Path for repo clone (relative to $GITHUB_WORKSPACE)

Example Usage
