Need to restore my configs to a "recovered" printer, not familiar enough with Git

Could you make a quick writeup on how to clone the existing repo down to a new install, and what steps would then be required to have it start pushing changes up to the repo.

My SD card died, awesome that I have my configs backed up. Ideally I'd like to be able to "pull" the existing configs down, without manual copying.

You can simply use git clone url-to-your-repository and run the ./script.sh file inside this directory. Or am I missing anything?

Scenario: SD Card died NEW SD Card imaged and can ssh into. Installed klipper/etc. using KIAUH want to be able to run a command and pull down all the configs from my private repo.

tbh never thought about that as i would simply use some cp and/or cp -r commands to copy all the files to the paths defined in .env file. So you would need around a minute to restore everything by hand.

#!/bin/bash

backup_folder=$(grep "backup_folder" .env | awk -F'=' '{print $2}')
while IFS= read -r line; do
    if [[ $line == path_* ]]; then
        destination_path=$(echo "$line" | awk -F'=' '{print $2}')
        backup_file=$(echo "$line" | awk -F'/' '{print $NF}')
        cp "$backup_folder/$backup_file" "$destination_path"
    fi
done < .env

echo "Restored files"

I have just written a script that fulfills your requirements. However, I have only tested it with some test data on a non-klipper system and not in a live environment, so no guarantee.

The script must be located in the same directory as the .env.

So run git clone [...] on your own repository, copy this script e.g. as restore.sh into the folder and then run it with a

chmod +x ./restore.sh
./restore.sh

Do not be confused by any error messages. Execute the script, check all directories manually (!) with some ls commands and please report if it worked. If not, please tell me in detail what did not work.

No feedback after 3 weeks, so I'll close this as I assume that the "problem" has been solved
