Yes, it's possible. In the Grml team we're hosting our repositories
on our own git server (http://git.grml.org/) and have a copy of it
available at Github within our "Grml Organization" account
(https://github.com/grml).
That's the code which does the mirror job inside our shared-hooks:
,---- [ github mirror ]
| copy_to_github()
| {
| echo -n "Making backup to github: "
| if git push --mirror git@github.com:grml/${projectname} >/dev/null 2>&1 ; then
| echo "done"
| else
| echo "Warning: Could not copy repo to github"
| fi
| }
`----
You get the benefit of having a maximum of flexibility/customization
thanks to the selfhosted repositories with access to e.g. Github's
pull-request workflow at the same time.
