Git存储库同步

Question

How can I keep two git repository synced?

The first repository is a "central" repository used by the team to push changes, created following the git book guide . The second repository will be only a mirror of the first.

I'm using git with ssh and changes should be pushed only from the first repository since it is behind a secured network.

Assuming the first repository knows about its mirror, you can use a post-receive hook. According to the manual, one of the common uses of such a hook is to notify others of a successfully received update.

To create such a hook, put a script (any script, the language/interpreter is determined by the shebang at the top) named post-receive in your hooks folder under .git (or under the main repo if it is bare). In the hook, run a command to push to the remote you are interested in. A sample script could be as follows:

#!/bin/sh
git push mirror

Here, mirror is the name of the mirror remote as configured in the main repository.
