Stash - How to clone an external repository and keep in downstream sync?

[Marian Stránecký]

Hi,

is there any plugin which allows to clone an external git repository (be it e.g. github or any other) and possibly to keep it in sync (downstream, st. like `git fetch --all`)?

Thank you for any hint,

Marian

There is no plugin to do this. (If the other end is also a Stash/BitBucket instance, there is a plugin for the other end to auto-push to the target.)

The easiest solution is to set up a scheduled job to pull to a local clone from the external source and push it to another remote (the internal copy). [We do this as a TeamCity task, but you can also implement it with cron/Windows Task Scheduler/whatever.]
