NAME
public-inbox-clone - "git clone --mirror" wrapper
SYNOPSIS
public-inbox-clone INBOX_URL [ INBOX_DIR ]
DESCRIPTION
public-inbox-clone is a wrapper around "git clone --mirror" for making the initial clone of a remote HTTP (S) public-inbox. It allows cloning multi-epoch v2 inboxes with a single command and zero configuration.
It does not run public-inbox-init (1) nor public-inbox-index (1). Those commands must be run separately if serving/searching the mirror is required. As-is, public-inbox-clone is suitable for creating a git-only backup.
public-inbox-clone creates a Makefile with handy targets to update the inbox once indexed. This Makefile may be edited by the user; it will not be rewritten by public-inbox-fetch (1) unless it is removed completely.
public-inbox-clone does not use nor require any extra configuration files (not even "˜/.public-inbox/config").
public-inbox-fetch (1) may be used to keep "INBOX_DIR" up-to-date.
For v2 inboxes, it will create a "$INBOX_DIR/manifest.js.gz" file to speed up subsequent public-inbox-fetch (1).
OPTIONS
--epoch=RANGE
Restrict clones of public-inbox-v2-format (5) inboxes to the given range of epochs. The range may be a single non-negative integer or a (possibly open-ended) "LOW..HIGH" range of non-negative integers. "˜" may be prefixed to either (or both) integer values to represent the offset from the maximum possible value.
For example, "--epoch=˜0" alone clones only the latest epoch, "--epoch=˜2.." clones the three latest epochs.
Default: "0..˜0" or 0.. or "..˜0" (all epochs, all three examples are equivalent)
|

--quiet

--torsocks=auto|no|yes
--no-torsocks
Whether to wrap git (1) and curl (1) commands with torsocks (1).
