Find more details about authors mapping in Authors mapping article.
Specify a username and password that are used by SubGit to access the SCN repository. Edit passwd file:

By default, there's only subgit secret credential pair. Replace it with username and its corresponding password.
There are several methods to configure authentication to access SVN server, but we use plain text password file here to simplify the guide. See more authentication methods in SVN Authentication if this method does not fit your needs. |

step into newly created local Git repository

add a remote to the local Git repository:
$ git remote add github GITHUB_REPO |
where
GITHUB_REPO
– GitHub project URL.in Linux:
$ git config --global credential.helper cache |
in MacOS X:
$ git config --global credential.helper osxkeychain |
push local repository content into GitHub repository:
|
|
create post-receive hook script and make it executable:
$ echo 'git push --all --follow-tags github' > GIT_REPO/hooks/user-post-receive $ chmod ug+x GIT_REPO/hooks/user-post-receive |
In order to maintain reliable two-way mirror using setup described above, Git users have to push their changes to SubGit-managed Git repository rather than submitting changes to GitHub repository directly. If neverthelessyou need to fetch changes from GitHub - follow the instruction in GitHub mirror full guide. |
Try and buy.
Note: the trial period for SubGit mirror is 30 days, after that period you should buy a license key at https://subgit.com/pricing. |
Once you receive an email with a license key, upload this license key to your server and run the following command:
$ sudo subgit register --key subgit.key GIT_REPO |
where
GIT_REPO
