I am trying to clone an entire gitlab tree using a base url and a token.

When running the command:

$ gitlabber -t ~/.ssh/gitlab_key -u https://gitlab.com/mygroupname
Please specify a destination for the gitlab tree

Please correct me if I am doing it in the wrong way.

Another try:

gitlabber -t https://<token_name>:<token_access>@gitlab.com -u https://gitlab.com/mygroupname
Please specify a destination for the gitlab tree

What is the correct way?.

  1. for the gitlab token you need to provide the actual token value and not a file ~/.ssh/gitlab_key or a uri https://<token_name>:<token_access>@gitlab.com
  2. -u parameter is for the base url, e.g., https://gitlab.com/ and not https://gitlab.com/mygroupname
  3. the last parameter of the command tells gitlabber where to clone the root of the tree please try the following command to clone it to the current directory (.):
gitlabber -t <personal access token> -u <gitlab url> .

Please refer to the examples section of the documentation for more information on how to use gitlabber

I have cloned all my orgs private repository into my local computer. Now I need a way to push to a group I created on Gitlab. Is there a gitlabber command for that?
