@mattip Sorry for my late reply.
I am curious how you are mirroring this
I mirrored this via a fork version of https://github.com/fingolfin/git-remote-hg
Is there a machine running a cron job somewhere?
Yes. I run a job via crontab on my vps.
Would it be reasonable to mirror via a github actions cron task?
Yes, it's possible. Looks like I should merge to use github action instead of crontab, I'll try it later.
I think the version at https://github.com/mnauw/git-remote-hg works better
@mattip Thanks for your share, I'll try it when I start to merge the job.
@mattip Just create a demo for mirror hg repo with github action ( via https://github.com/mozillazg/git-remote-hg ) and it works:
https://github.com/mozillazg/test-hg-mirror-with-gh-action
This repo will mirror https://foss.heptapod.net/pypy/buildbot to https://github.com/mozillazg/pypy-buildbot
BTW, I am not trying https://github.com/mnauw/git-remote-hg yet, looks like it's more powerful.
I mirrored this via a fork version of fingolfin/git-remote-hg
Sorry for this message, I misremembered. In fact, I used a fork version of https://github.com/felipec/git-remote-hg, I have pushed the modified codes from my vps to https://github.com/mozillazg/git-remote-hg
Wow, thanks! What will happen the next time it runs, will it recreate the repo all over again or will it only pick up the changes?
It'll recreate the repo all over again, but git push
will only push the changes.
@mozillazg, have you made any progress wrt updating the automation for this repo? We find it very helpful for PyPy packaging on Gentoo but the mirroring delays are a bit of a problem.
Right now I see that default
branch has been synced but the release branches or tags haven't.
@mgorny Thank you for your feedback. I haven't made any changes to the automated synchronization process recently, so it seems there might be an issue somewhere that has prevented the latest tags from being synced. I will fix it as soon as possible.

@mgorny The issue has been resolved.

Thanks. Unfortunately, release-pypy2.7-v7.3.12rc1
still isn't there, and release-pypy2.7-v7.x
branch seems outdated.

@mgorny Thank you for the reminder. After checking, I found that the reason these two branches were not synchronized is that there is a case in the data of these two branches that the git-remote-hg script I used cannot handle. I plan to try switching to https://github.com/mnauw/git-remote-hg.

The issue has been resolved. Please check again.
Thanks! Did you use https://github.com/mnauw/git-remote-hg as-is or did you need to modify it?

@mattip
The https://github.com/mnauw/git-remote-hg cannot handle the repository of PyPy. I am currently using https://github.com/mozillazg/git-remote-hg, which is modified based on the latest version of https://github.com/felipec/git-remote-hg.
Would it be reasonable to mirror via a github actions cron task?
@mattip
I have completed the migration and implemented regular synchronization using GitHub Actions today:

Cool!
Maybe you could mention that repo in the README here or in the About blurb in the upper-right corner? Also, how can I contribute? I see a "donate" link but it goes to https://mozillazg.com/wechat_donate.jpeg, which unfortunately I cannot read.

👌 I have updated the content of the About blurb to mention that repo.

No need to be so polite. Compared to your contributions to the PyPy community, my work is just a drop in the bucket. That donation link is only for Chinese developers, as GitHub Sponsor does not support bank accounts from China.
Thanks a lot! Your work is of great help to us in Gentoo, and to me specifically as it saves me from having to figure out how to use Mercurial ;-).
I am a PyPy dev, and am considering how we can use some of the nice CI providers available to github projects but not available to other code hosting sites like foss.heptapod.net
