GAH - turn your github repos into static sites (git.sr.ht)

Issue and PR threads are invaluable documentation for a project, it's difficult to migrate to another code host when years of knowledge are locked into your old hosting service. So I built a couple of scripts to archive issues, pull requests, comments, and source code from github repositories, and to turn them into static sites! With the accelerating exodus away from github, I've heard from a lot of people that there aren't any good tools for archiving that knowledge in a human-readable format, so I thought this would be a useful tool to make. The initial release is ready, and just in time for github to start charging for self-hosted runners!

If you try it out, let me know what you think. There's definitely areas that can be improved on :)

Is the name of this a seriously deep cut to the “nurupo” “GAH!” Meme from 2ch?

[–] absolutely_vivid@programming.dev 2 points 1 week ago

It is now lol

I'm bad at naming things, so it was originally GHA (for github archiver, changed to good helpful archiver because trademark), but I kept misspelling it as GAH so it was just easier to change the name.

But the reference is way better :P
