The button said "Manual Sync" for archived repositories, and the wider label pushed the status badge in that row out of line with the others. It now says Sync like every other row, with a tooltip that automatic syncs are off for archived mirrors and the button syncs it now. The Automation settings text, the README and the environment variable docs point to Sync instead of Manual Sync.
Gitea Mirror Documentation
This folder contains engineering and operations references for the open-source Gitea Mirror project. Each guide focuses on the parts of the system that still require bespoke explanation beyond the in-app help and the main README.md.
Available Guides
Core workflow
- DEVELOPMENT_WORKFLOW.md – Set up a local environment, run scripts, and understand the repo layout (app + marketing site).
- ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLES.md – Complete reference for every configuration flag supported by the app and Docker images.
- NIX_DEPLOYMENT.md – User-facing deployment guide for Nix and NixOS.
- NIX_DISTRIBUTION.md – Maintainer notes for packaging, releases, and distribution strategy.
Reliability & recovery
- GRACEFUL_SHUTDOWN.md – How signal handling, shutdown coordination, and job persistence work in v3.
- RECOVERY_IMPROVEMENTS.md – Deep dive into the startup recovery workflow and supporting scripts.
Authentication
- SSO-OIDC-SETUP.md – Configure OIDC/SSO providers through the admin UI.
- SSO_TESTING.md – Recipes for local and staging SSO testing (Google, Keycloak, mock providers).
API
- API.md – Create API keys and call the app from scripts, CI pipelines and workflow tools.
Sources and destinations
- SOURCE_PROVIDERS.md – GitHub, GitLab and Gitea/Forgejo as sources: tokens, what each can mirror, the source lock.
- PUSH_TARGETS.md – GitHub and GitLab as destinations: how the push engine works, token scopes, disk usage, what is not mirrored.
The user-facing documentation lives on the website at https://gitea-mirror.raylabs.io/docs/, with its sources under www/src/pages/docs/. If you are looking for playbooks, see the MDX use cases under www/src/pages/use-cases/.
Quick start for local development
git clone https://github.com/RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror.git
cd gitea-mirror
bun run setup # installs deps and seeds the SQLite DB
bun run dev # starts the Astro/Bun app on http://localhost:4321
The first user you create locally becomes the administrator. All other configuration—GitHub owners, Gitea targets, scheduling, cleanup—is done through the Configuration screen in the UI.
