Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror/issues/17

I see this has a ton of functionality but I'm curious to know how it excels over Gitea builtin mirroring (https://docs.gitea.com/usage/repo-mirror)

I have been using the builtin mirroring and noticed this project in the self hosted newsletter and wanted to understand more, as it seems richer.

Thank you for your work

Hi @itguy327 this uses the same Gitea buitin mirroring but helps you manage and mirror 100s of repos you may have in your gihtub. Else you need to mirror them one by one. Here all you do if configure the tokens and thats it you can select whether you want to mirror whole organisations or skip mirroing issues. Also say you want to keep a mirror of all the starred repos.

TL;DR: This automates the same process and gives you a nice dashboard to view the process.
