The following commands facilitate the exportation of a repository, as per specifications:
export REPO=repo &&
aws codecommit create-repository --repository-name ${REPO} --repository-description "${REPO}" &&
git clone --mirror https://github.com/repo/${REPO}.git ${REPO} &&
cd ${REPO} &&
git push https://git-codecommit.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/v1/repos/${REPO} --all &&
cd ..
These commands are utilized to export a repository, enabling seamless migration and replication of codebases across platforms.
The provided commands orchestrate the exportation of a repository from an existing Git repository hosted on GitHub to AWS CodeCommit, Amazon’s source control service. Here’s a breakdown:
1. **Export Repository Variables**: The first command assigns a variable named `REPO` with the value “repo”.
2. **Create CodeCommit Repository**: This AWS CLI command creates a new repository in AWS CodeCommit with the same name as the one specified in the `REPO` variable. The `–repository-description` flag provides a description for the repository, which in this case is the same as the repository name.
3. **Clone Repository**: This command clones the GitHub repository specified by the URL `https://github.com/repo/${REPO}.git` using the `git clone` command with the `–mirror` option. The `–mirror` option ensures that all references, branches, and history are copied.
4. **Navigate to Cloned Repository Directory**: Changes the directory to the newly cloned repository.
5. **Push to CodeCommit**: Pushes all branches and tags from the local repository to the AWS CodeCommit repository using the `git push` command. The CodeCommit repository URL is specified as `https://git-codecommit.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/v1/repos/${REPO}`.
6. **Return to Previous Directory**: Changes the directory back to the previous directory.
The provided commands facilitate the seamless migration of a Git repository hosted on GitHub to AWS CodeCommit, ensuring continuity and accessibility of the codebase within the AWS ecosystem.
