Important Change: HTTP Migration

As of version 0.3.2, repository synchronization now uses HTTPS instead of SSH.

This change was made to:

• Simplify authentication (uses GitHub tokens instead of SSH keys)
• Improve compatibility across different network environments
• Reduce configuration complexity for users

If you were using previous versions with SSH, please note:

• Existing SSH configurations are preserved but no longer used for synchronization
• You'll need a GitHub token for authentication (see GitHub Integration)
• SSH-related features (key validation, configuration) are being phased out

Features

• Repository Management: Clone, pull, parallel download and sync GitHub repositories with intelligent health checks
• GitHub Integration: Token authentication, repository listing, and metadata retrieval
• User Management: Multiple user profiles with GitHub token authentication
• Network Diagnostics: Comprehensive connectivity checks and network validation
• Smart Synchronization: Intelligent sync with auto-repair for broken repositories
• Configuration Persistence: User settings and repository state storage

Related Projects

This core library powers two complete implementations:

CLI Version

A full-featured command-line interface built on top of this core library. Provides terminal-based repository management with all features accessible via commands.

GUI Version

A desktop graphical user interface that offers visual management of repositories and synchronization tasks. Built for users who prefer point-and-click interaction.

Both implementations use this core library as their engine, ensuring consistent behavior and feature parity across interfaces.

Development Status

Active Development - This project is under active development. Features may change, and stability is not guaranteed. Not recommended for production use without thorough testing.

Migration Notes

If you're upgrading from a version prior to 0.3.2:

1. Obtain a GitHub token from your GitHub account settings
2. Update your user profile with the new token
3. Existing repositories will automatically use HTTPS for future operations
4. SSH configurations are preserved but will be ignored for sync operations
