Github action that allows synchronizing parts of repositories. It runs rsync between source folder in current repository to destination repository and destination folder and creates a commit in destination repository. Typical usage is for synchronizing to GitOps state repositories from source code.
See action.yml
Example:
steps:
- name: Commit to state repository
uses: drud/action-cross-commit@master
with:
source-folder: config
destination-repository: https://<user>:${{ secrets.user_token }}@github.com/org/dest-repo
destination-folder: .
destination-branch: alpha
git-user: "Git User"
git-user-email: [email protected]
git-commit-message: "Custom commit message (optional)"
excludes: README.md:.git:path/deeper/in/the/repo
The example above will trigger rsync
that will synchronize the files in
./config
to repository github.com/org/dest-repo
root using user credentials
(can be stored as Github secrets) and create commit on alpha
branch. The
rsync
will exclude /.git
, /README.md
and /path/deeper/in/the/repo
from
both repositories during the synchronization.
