Not an issue: question regarding expected behaviour about gitdummy

[realtux]

No, it definitely should not make one commit. If your target repo(s) has 1000 commits, the dummy repo should then have 1000 commits.

Fixed it, I need to split the target repo list e.g.:

[
    {
        "target_repo"       : ["/Users/kungfujam/git/exc1"],
        "target_email"      : ["[email protected]","[email protected]"],
        "dummy_repo"        : "/Users/kungfujam/git/private_dummy",
        "dummy_repo_data"   : "/Users/kungfujam/git/private_dummy/data",
        "dummy_email"       : "[email protected]",
        "dummy_name"        : "Dummy",
        "dummy_readme"      : "This public repository reflects the commits from a private repo (minus the actual code)",
        "dummy_ext"         : ".js",
        "dummy_code"        : "'use strict';",
        "hide_commits"      : true,
        "random_file_name"  : false,
        "auto_push"         : true,
        "force"             : false,
        "remote"            : "https://github.com/kungfujam/private_dummy"
    },
    {
        "target_repo"       : ["/Users/kungfujam/git/mlpr1"],
        "target_email"      : ["[email protected]","[email protected]"],

Hmm, that's a bug. You should be able to do it like you did in the first config file. I'm gonna fix this.

[JamesOwers]

Grand, cheers for this repo by the way. Simple and effective. 👍 😄

[realtux]

Thanks 😄 glad you like it. It's been nice seeing it growing and used over the last year.

[realtux]

I'm embarrassed this was even an issue. It should be fixed now. If you're a Python programmer, check the commit. You'll laugh.

[JamesOwers]

Initialising inside a loop is a classic 😉
