GitHub and GitLab as mirror destinations, both beta. Neither has a usable pull mirror API, so the app keeps a bare clone of each source repository and pushes its branches and tags to the target with force and prune. Target adapters create, archive and delete repositories through each host's API. A dispatcher routes mirror, sync, retry, scheduler, recovery and cleanup by destination; Gitea and Forgejo are unchanged. Migration 0018 records each repository's destination host. Metadata, LFS, wiki and force push protection are disabled with a reason for push targets. Closes #377

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.
