fix: ensure correct open/closed status when mirroring issues (#161)

Add verification and explicit close fallback after issue creation to
  handle Gitea API's two-step close process that can fail silently.

+# Nix Distribution - Ready to Use!
+
+## Current Status: WORKS NOW
+
+Your Nix package is **already distributable**! Users can run it directly from GitHub without any additional setup on your end.
+
+## How Users Will Use It
+
+### Simple: Just Run From GitHub
+
+```bash
+nix run --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror
+```
+
+That's it! No releases, no CI, no infrastructure needed. It works right now.
+
+---
+
+## What Happens When They Run This?
+
+1. **Nix fetches** your repo from GitHub
+2. **Nix reads** `flake.nix` and `flake.lock`
+3. **Nix builds** the package on their machine
+4. **Nix runs** the application
+5. **Result cached** in `/nix/store` for reuse
+
+---
+
+## Do You Need CI or Releases?
+
+### For Basic Usage: **NO**
+Users can already use it from GitHub. No CI or releases required.
+
+### For CI Validation: **Already Set Up**
+GitHub Actions validates builds on every push with Magic Nix Cache (free, no setup).
+
+---
+
+## Next Steps (Optional)
+
+### Option 1: Release Versioning (2 minutes)
+
+**Why:** Users can pin to specific versions
+
+**How:**
+```bash
+# When ready to release
+git tag v3.8.11
+git push origin v3.8.11
+
+# Users can then pin to this version
+nix run github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror/v3.8.11
+```
+
+No additional CI needed - tags work automatically with flakes!
+
+### Option 2: Submit to nixpkgs (Long Term)
+
+**Why:** Maximum discoverability and trust
+
+**When:** After package is stable and well-tested
+
+**How:** Submit PR to https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs
+
+---
+
+## Files Created
+
+### Essential (Already Working)
+- `flake.nix` - Package definition
+- `flake.lock` - Dependency lock file
+- `.envrc` - direnv integration
+
+### Documentation
+- `NIX.md` - Quick reference for users
+- `docs/NIX_DEPLOYMENT.md` - Complete deployment guide
+- `docs/NIX_DISTRIBUTION.md` - Distribution guide for you (maintainer)
+- `README.md` - Updated with Nix instructions
+
+### CI (Already Set Up)
+- `.github/workflows/nix-build.yml` - Builds and validates on Linux + macOS
+
+### Updated
+- `.gitignore` - Added Nix artifacts
+
+---
+
+## Comparison: Your Distribution Options
+
+| Setup | Time | User Experience | What You Need |
+|-------|------|----------------|---------------|
+| **Direct GitHub** | 0 min | Slow (build from source) | Nothing! Works now |
+| **+ Git Tags** | 2 min | Versionable | Just push tags |
+| **+ nixpkgs** | Hours | Official/Trusted | PR review process |
+
+**Recommendation:** Direct GitHub works now. Add git tags for versioning. Consider nixpkgs submission once stable.
+
+---
+
+## Testing Your Distribution
+
+You can test it right now:
+
+```bash
+# Test direct GitHub usage
+nix run --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror
+
+# Test with specific commit
+nix run github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror/$(git rev-parse HEAD)
+
+# Validate flake
+nix flake check
+```
+
+---
+
+## User Documentation Locations
+
+Users will find instructions in:
+1. **README.md** - Installation section (already updated)
+2. **NIX.md** - Quick reference
+3. **docs/NIX_DEPLOYMENT.md** - Detailed guide
+
+All docs include the correct commands with experimental features flags.
+
+---
+
+## When to Release New Versions
+
+### For Git Tag Releases:
+```bash
+# 1. Update version in package.json
+vim package.json
+
+# 2. Update version in flake.nix (line 17)
+vim flake.nix  # version = "3.8.12";
+
+# 3. Commit and tag
+git add package.json flake.nix
+git commit -m "chore: bump version to v3.8.12"
+git tag v3.8.12
+git push origin main
+git push origin v3.8.12
+```
+
+Users can then use: `nix run github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror/v3.8.12`
+
+### No Release Needed For:
+- Bug fixes
+- Small changes
+- Continuous updates
+
+Users can always use latest from main: `nix run github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror`
+
+---
+
+## Summary
+
+**Ready to distribute RIGHT NOW**
+- Just commit and push your `flake.nix`
+- Users can run directly from GitHub
+- CI validates builds automatically
+
+**Optional: Submit to nixpkgs**
+- Maximum discoverability
+- Official Nix repository
+- Do this once package is stable
+
+See `docs/NIX_DISTRIBUTION.md` for complete details!

+# Nix Deployment Quick Reference
+
+## TL;DR
+
+```bash
+# From GitHub (no clone needed!)
+nix run --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror
+
+# Or from local clone
+nix run --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' .#gitea-mirror
+```
+
+Secrets auto-generate, database auto-initializes, and the web UI starts at http://localhost:4321.
+
+**Note:** If you have flakes enabled in your nix config, you can omit `--extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes'`
+
+---
+
+## Installation Options
+
+### 1. Run Without Installing (from GitHub)
+```bash
+# Latest version from main branch
+nix run --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror
+
+# Pin to specific version
+nix run github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror/v3.8.11
+```
+
+### 2. Install to Profile
+```bash
+# Install from GitHub
+nix profile install --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror
+
+# Run the installed binary
+gitea-mirror
+```
+
+### 3. Use Local Clone
+```bash
+# Clone and run
+git clone https://github.com/RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror.git
+cd gitea-mirror
+nix run --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' .#gitea-mirror
+```
+
+### 4. NixOS System Service
+```nix
+# configuration.nix
+{
+  inputs.gitea-mirror.url = "github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror";
+
+  services.gitea-mirror = {
+    enable = true;
+    betterAuthUrl = "https://mirror.example.com";  # For production
+    openFirewall = true;
+  };
+}
+```
+
+### 5. Development (Local Clone)
+```bash
+nix develop --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes'
+# or
+direnv allow  # Handles experimental features automatically
+```
+
+---
+
+## Enable Flakes Permanently (Recommended)
+
+To avoid typing `--extra-experimental-features` every time, add to `~/.config/nix/nix.conf`:
+```
+experimental-features = nix-command flakes
+```
+
+---
+
+## What Gets Auto-Generated?
+
+On first run, the wrapper automatically:
+
+1. Creates `~/.local/share/gitea-mirror/` (or `$DATA_DIR`)
+2. Generates `BETTER_AUTH_SECRET` → `.better_auth_secret`
+3. Generates `ENCRYPTION_SECRET` → `.encryption_secret`
+4. Initializes SQLite database
+5. Runs startup recovery and repair scripts
+6. Starts the application
+
+---
+
+## Key Commands
+
+```bash
+# Database management
+gitea-mirror-db init      # Initialize database
+gitea-mirror-db check     # Health check
+gitea-mirror-db fix       # Fix issues
+
+# Development (add --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' if needed)
+nix develop               # Enter dev shell
+nix build                 # Build package
+nix flake check           # Validate flake
+nix flake update          # Update dependencies
+```
+
+---
+
+## Environment Variables
+
+All vars from `docker-compose.alt.yml` are supported:
+
+```bash
+DATA_DIR="$HOME/.local/share/gitea-mirror"
+PORT=4321
+HOST="0.0.0.0"
+BETTER_AUTH_URL="http://localhost:4321"
+
+# Secrets (auto-generated if not set)
+BETTER_AUTH_SECRET=auto-generated
+ENCRYPTION_SECRET=auto-generated
+
+# Concurrency (for perfect ordering, set both to 1)
+MIRROR_ISSUE_CONCURRENCY=3
+MIRROR_PULL_REQUEST_CONCURRENCY=5
+```
+
+---
+
+## NixOS Module Options
+
+```nix
+services.gitea-mirror = {
+  enable = true;
+  package = ...;                        # Override package

+# Nix Deployment Guide
+
+This guide covers deploying Gitea Mirror using Nix flakes. The Nix deployment follows the same minimal configuration philosophy as `docker-compose.alt.yml` - secrets are auto-generated, and everything else can be configured via the web UI.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Nix 2.4+ installed
+- For NixOS module: NixOS 23.05+
+
+### Enable Flakes (Recommended)
+
+To enable flakes permanently and avoid typing flags, add to `/etc/nix/nix.conf` or `~/.config/nix/nix.conf`:
+```
+experimental-features = nix-command flakes
+```
+
+**Note:** If you don't enable flakes globally, add `--extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes'` to all nix commands shown below.
+
+## Quick Start (Zero Configuration!)
+
+### Run Immediately - No Setup Required
+
+```bash
+# Run directly from the flake (local)
+nix run --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' .#gitea-mirror
+
+# Or from GitHub (once published)
+nix run --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror
+
+# If you have flakes enabled globally, simply:
+nix run .#gitea-mirror
+```
+
+That's it! On first run:
+- Secrets (`BETTER_AUTH_SECRET` and `ENCRYPTION_SECRET`) are auto-generated
+- Database is automatically created and initialized
+- Startup recovery and repair scripts run automatically
+- Access the web UI at http://localhost:4321
+
+Everything else (GitHub credentials, Gitea settings, mirror options) is configured through the web interface after signup.
+
+### Development Environment
+
+```bash
+# Enter development shell with all dependencies
+nix develop --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes'
+
+# Or use direnv for automatic environment loading (handles flags automatically)
+echo "use flake" > .envrc
+direnv allow
+```
+
+### Build and Install
+
+```bash
+# Build the package
+nix build --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes'
+
+# Run the built package
+./result/bin/gitea-mirror
+
+# Install to your profile
+nix profile install --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' .#gitea-mirror
+```
+
+## What Happens on First Run?
+
+Following the same pattern as the Docker deployment, the Nix package automatically:
+
+1. **Creates data directory**: `~/.local/share/gitea-mirror` (or `$DATA_DIR`)
+2. **Generates secrets** (stored securely in data directory):
+   - `BETTER_AUTH_SECRET` - Session authentication (32-char hex)
+   - `ENCRYPTION_SECRET` - Token encryption (48-char base64)
+3. **Initializes database**: SQLite database with Drizzle migrations
+4. **Runs startup scripts**:
+   - Environment configuration loader
+   - Crash recovery for interrupted jobs
+   - Repository status repair
+5. **Starts the application** with graceful shutdown handling
+
+## NixOS Module - Minimal Deployment
+
+### Simplest Possible Configuration
+
+Add to your NixOS configuration (`/etc/nixos/configuration.nix`):
+
+```nix
+{
+  inputs = {
+    nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";
+    gitea-mirror.url = "github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror";
+  };
+
+  outputs = { nixpkgs, gitea-mirror, ... }: {
+    nixosConfigurations.your-hostname = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
+      system = "x86_64-linux";
+      modules = [
+        gitea-mirror.nixosModules.default
+        {
+          # That's it! Just enable the service
+          services.gitea-mirror.enable = true;
+        }
+      ];
+    };
+  };
+}
+```
+
+Apply with:
+```bash
+sudo nixos-rebuild switch
+```
+
+Access at http://localhost:4321, sign up (first user is admin), and configure everything via the web UI.
+
+### Production Configuration
+
+For production with custom domain and firewall:
+
+```nix
+{
+  services.gitea-mirror = {
+    enable = true;
+    host = "0.0.0.0";
+    port = 4321;
+    betterAuthUrl = "https://mirror.example.com";
+    betterAuthTrustedOrigins = "https://mirror.example.com";
+    openFirewall = true;
+  };
+
+  # Optional: Use with nginx reverse proxy
+  services.nginx = {
+    enable = true;
+    virtualHosts."mirror.example.com" = {
+      locations."/" = {
+        proxyPass = "http://127.0.0.1:4321";
+        proxyWebsockets = true;
+      };
+      enableACME = true;
+      forceSSL = true;
+    };
+  };
+}
+```
+
+### Advanced: Manual Secret Management
+
+If you prefer to manage secrets manually (e.g., with sops-nix or agenix):
+
+1. Create a secrets file:

+  services.gitea-mirror = {
+    enable = true;
+    environmentFile = "/var/lib/gitea-mirror/secrets.env";
+  };
+}
+```
+
+### Full Configuration Options
+
+```nix

+
+    # Concurrency controls (match docker-compose.alt.yml)
+    mirrorIssueConcurrency = 3;  # Set to 1 for perfect chronological order
+    mirrorPullRequestConcurrency = 5;  # Set to 1 for perfect chronological order
+
+    environmentFile = null;  # Optional secrets file
+    openFirewall = true;
+  };
+}
+```
+
+## Service Management (NixOS)
+
+```bash
+# Start the service
+sudo systemctl start gitea-mirror
+
+# Stop the service
+sudo systemctl stop gitea-mirror
+
+# Restart the service
+sudo systemctl restart gitea-mirror
+
+# Check status
+sudo systemctl status gitea-mirror
+
+# View logs
+sudo journalctl -u gitea-mirror -f
+
+# Health check
+curl http://localhost:4321/api/health
+```
+
+## Environment Variables
+
+All variables from `docker-compose.alt.yml` are supported:
+
+```bash
+# === AUTO-GENERATED (Don't set unless you want specific values) ===
+BETTER_AUTH_SECRET          # Auto-generated, stored in data dir
+ENCRYPTION_SECRET           # Auto-generated, stored in data dir
+
+# === CORE SETTINGS (Have good defaults) ===
+DATA_DIR="$HOME/.local/share/gitea-mirror"
+DATABASE_URL="file:$DATA_DIR/gitea-mirror.db"
+HOST="0.0.0.0"
+PORT="4321"
+NODE_ENV="production"
+
+# === BETTER AUTH (Override for custom domains) ===
+BETTER_AUTH_URL="http://localhost:4321"
+BETTER_AUTH_TRUSTED_ORIGINS="http://localhost:4321"
+PUBLIC_BETTER_AUTH_URL="http://localhost:4321"
+
+# === CONCURRENCY CONTROLS ===
+MIRROR_ISSUE_CONCURRENCY=3           # Default: 3 (set to 1 for perfect order)
+MIRROR_PULL_REQUEST_CONCURRENCY=5    # Default: 5 (set to 1 for perfect order)
+
+# === CONFIGURE VIA WEB UI (Not needed at startup) ===
+# GitHub credentials, Gitea settings, mirror options, scheduling, etc.
+# All configured after signup through the web interface
+```
+
+## Database Management
+
+The Nix package includes a database management helper:
+
+```bash
+# Initialize database (done automatically on first run)
+gitea-mirror-db init
+
+# Check database health
+gitea-mirror-db check
+
+# Fix database issues
+gitea-mirror-db fix
+
+# Reset users
+gitea-mirror-db reset-users
+```
+
+## Home Manager Integration
+
+For single-user deployments:
+
+```nix
+{ config, pkgs, ... }:
+let
+  gitea-mirror = (import (fetchTarball "https://github.com/RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror/archive/main.tar.gz")).packages.${pkgs.system}.default;
+in {
+  home.packages = [ gitea-mirror ];
+
+  # Optional: Run as user service
+  systemd.user.services.gitea-mirror = {
+    Unit = {
+      Description = "Gitea Mirror Service";
+      After = [ "network.target" ];
+    };
+
+    Service = {
+      Type = "simple";
+      ExecStart = "${gitea-mirror}/bin/gitea-mirror";
+      Restart = "always";
+      Environment = [
+        "DATA_DIR=%h/.local/share/gitea-mirror"
+        "HOST=127.0.0.1"
+        "PORT=4321"
+      ];
+    };
+
+    Install = {
+      WantedBy = [ "default.target" ];
+    };
+  };
+}
+```
+
+## Docker Image from Nix (Optional)
+
+You can also use Nix to create a Docker image:
+
+```nix
+# Add to flake.nix packages section
+dockerImage = pkgs.dockerTools.buildLayeredImage {
+  name = "gitea-mirror";
+  tag = "latest";
+  contents = [ self.packages.${system}.default pkgs.cacert pkgs.openssl ];
+  config = {
+    Cmd = [ "${self.packages.${system}.default}/bin/gitea-mirror" ];
+    ExposedPorts = { "4321/tcp" = {}; };
+    Env = [
+      "DATA_DIR=/data"
+      "DATABASE_URL=file:/data/gitea-mirror.db"
+    ];
+    Volumes = { "/data" = {}; };
+  };
+};
+```
+
+Build and load:
+```bash
+nix build --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' .#dockerImage
+docker load < result
+docker run -p 4321:4321 -v gitea-mirror-data:/data gitea-mirror:latest
+```
+
+## Comparison: Docker vs Nix
+
+Both deployment methods follow the same philosophy:
+
+| Feature | Docker Compose | Nix |
+|---------|---------------|-----|
+| **Configuration** | Minimal (only BETTER_AUTH_SECRET) | Zero config (auto-generated) |
+| **Secret Generation** | Auto-generated & persisted | Auto-generated & persisted |
+| **Database Init** | Automatic on first run | Automatic on first run |
+| **Startup Scripts** | Runs recovery/repair/env-config | Runs recovery/repair/env-config |
+| **Graceful Shutdown** | Signal handling in entrypoint | Signal handling in wrapper |
+| **Health Check** | Docker healthcheck | systemd timer (optional) |
+| **Updates** | `docker pull` | `nix flake update && nixos-rebuild` |
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Check Auto-Generated Secrets
+```bash
+# For standalone
+cat ~/.local/share/gitea-mirror/.better_auth_secret
+cat ~/.local/share/gitea-mirror/.encryption_secret
+
+# For NixOS service
+sudo cat /var/lib/gitea-mirror/.better_auth_secret
+sudo cat /var/lib/gitea-mirror/.encryption_secret
+```
+
+### Database Issues
+```bash
+# Check if database exists
+ls -la ~/.local/share/gitea-mirror/gitea-mirror.db
+
+# Reinitialize (deletes all data!)
+rm ~/.local/share/gitea-mirror/gitea-mirror.db
+gitea-mirror-db init
+```
+
+### Permission Issues (NixOS)
+```bash
+sudo chown -R gitea-mirror:gitea-mirror /var/lib/gitea-mirror
+sudo chmod 700 /var/lib/gitea-mirror
+```
+
+### Port Already in Use
+```bash
+# Change port
+export PORT=8080
+gitea-mirror
+
+# Or in NixOS config
+services.gitea-mirror.port = 8080;
+```
+
+### View Startup Logs
+```bash
+# Standalone (verbose output on console)
+gitea-mirror
+
+# NixOS service
+sudo journalctl -u gitea-mirror -f --since "5 minutes ago"
+```
+
+## Updating
+
+### Standalone Installation
+```bash
+# Update flake lock
+nix flake update --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes'
+
+# Rebuild
+nix build --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes'
+
+# Or update profile
+nix profile upgrade --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' gitea-mirror
+```
+
+### NixOS
+```bash
+# Update input
+sudo nix flake lock --update-input gitea-mirror --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes'
+
+# Rebuild system
+sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#your-hostname
+```
+
+## Migration from Docker
+
+To migrate from Docker to Nix while keeping your data:
+
+1. **Stop Docker container:**
+   ```bash
+   docker-compose -f docker-compose.alt.yml down
+   ```
+
+2. **Copy data directory:**
+   ```bash
+   # For standalone
+   cp -r ./data ~/.local/share/gitea-mirror
+
+   # For NixOS
+   sudo cp -r ./data /var/lib/gitea-mirror
+   sudo chown -R gitea-mirror:gitea-mirror /var/lib/gitea-mirror
+   ```
+
+3. **Copy secrets (if you want to keep them):**
+   ```bash
+   # Extract from Docker volume
+   docker run --rm -v gitea-mirror_data:/data alpine \
+     cat /data/.better_auth_secret > better_auth_secret
+   docker run --rm -v gitea-mirror_data:/data alpine \
+     cat /data/.encryption_secret > encryption_secret
+
+   # Copy to new location
+   cp better_auth_secret ~/.local/share/gitea-mirror/.better_auth_secret
+   cp encryption_secret ~/.local/share/gitea-mirror/.encryption_secret
+   chmod 600 ~/.local/share/gitea-mirror/.*_secret
+   ```
+
+4. **Start Nix version:**
+   ```bash
+   gitea-mirror
+   ```
+
+## CI/CD Integration
+
+Example GitHub Actions workflow (see `.github/workflows/nix-build.yml`):
+
+```yaml
+name: Nix Build
+
+on: [push, pull_request]
+
+permissions:
+  contents: read
+
+jobs:
+  build:
+    strategy:
+      matrix:
+        os: [ubuntu-latest, macos-latest]
+    runs-on: ${{ matrix.os }}
+    steps:
+    - uses: actions/checkout@v4
+    - uses: DeterminateSystems/nix-installer-action@main
+    - uses: DeterminateSystems/magic-nix-cache-action@main
+    - run: nix flake check
+    - run: nix build --print-build-logs
+```
+
+This uses:
+- **Determinate Nix Installer** - Fast, reliable Nix installation with flakes enabled by default
+- **Magic Nix Cache** - Free caching using GitHub Actions cache (no account needed)

+# Nix Package Distribution Guide
+
+This guide explains how Gitea Mirror is distributed via Nix and how users can consume it.
+
+## Distribution Methods
+
+### Method 1: Direct GitHub Usage (Zero Infrastructure)
+
+**No CI, releases, or setup needed!** Users can consume directly from GitHub:
+
+```bash
+# Latest from main branch
+nix run --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror
+
+# Pin to specific commit
+nix run github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror/abc123def
+
+# Pin to git tag
+nix run github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror/v3.8.11
+```
+
+**How it works:**
+1. Nix fetches the repository from GitHub
+2. Nix reads `flake.nix` and `flake.lock`
+3. Nix builds the package locally on the user's machine
+4. Package is cached in `/nix/store` for reuse
+
+**Pros:**
+- Zero infrastructure needed
+- Works immediately after pushing code
+- Users always get reproducible builds
+
+**Cons:**
+- Users must build from source (slower first time)
+- Requires build dependencies (Bun, etc.)
+
+---
+
+### Method 2: CI Build Caching
+
+The GitHub Actions workflow uses **Magic Nix Cache** (by Determinate Systems) to cache builds:
+
+- **Zero configuration required** - no accounts or tokens needed
+- **Automatic** - CI workflow handles everything
+- **Uses GitHub Actions cache** - fast, reliable, free
+
+#### How It Works:
+
+1. GitHub Actions builds the package on each push/PR
+2. Build artifacts are cached in GitHub Actions cache
+3. Subsequent builds reuse cached dependencies (faster CI)
+
+Note: This caches CI builds. Users still build locally, but the flake.lock ensures reproducibility.
+
+---
+
+### Method 3: nixpkgs Submission (Official Distribution)
+
+Submit to the official Nix package repository for maximum visibility.
+
+#### Process:
+
+1. **Prepare package** (already done with `flake.nix`)
+2. **Test thoroughly**
+3. **Submit PR to nixpkgs:** https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs
+
+#### User Experience:
+
+```bash
+# After acceptance into nixpkgs
+nix run nixpkgs#gitea-mirror
+
+# NixOS configuration
+environment.systemPackages = [ pkgs.gitea-mirror ];
+```
+
+**Pros:**
+- Maximum discoverability (official repo)
+- Trusted by Nix community
+- Included in NixOS search
+- Binary caching by cache.nixos.org
+
+**Cons:**
+- Submission/review process
+- Must follow nixpkgs guidelines
+- Updates require PRs
+
+---
+
+## Current Distribution Strategy
+
+### Phase 1: Direct GitHub (Immediate) ✅
+
+Already working! Users can:
+
+```bash
+nix run github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror
+```
+
+### Phase 2: CI Build Validation ✅
+
+GitHub Actions workflow validates builds on every push/PR:
+
+- Uses Magic Nix Cache for fast CI builds
+- Tests on both Linux and macOS
+- No setup required - works automatically
+
+### Phase 3: Version Releases (Optional)
+
+Tag releases for version pinning:
+
+```bash
+git tag v3.8.11
+git push origin v3.8.11
+
+# Users can then pin:
+nix run github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror/v3.8.11
+```
+
+### Phase 4: nixpkgs Submission (Long Term)
+
+Once package is stable and well-tested, submit to nixpkgs.
+
+---
+
+## User Documentation
+
+### For Users: How to Install
+
+Add this to your `docs/NIX_DEPLOYMENT.md`:
+
+#### Option 1: Direct Install (No Configuration)
+
+```bash
+# Run immediately
+nix run --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror
+
+# Install to profile
+nix profile install --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror
+```
+
+#### Option 2: Pin to Specific Version
+
+```bash
+# Pin to git tag
+nix run github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror/v3.8.11
+
+# Pin to commit
+nix run github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror/abc123def
+
+# Lock in flake.nix
+inputs.gitea-mirror.url = "github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror/v3.8.11";
+```
+
+#### Option 3: NixOS Configuration
+
+```nix
+{
+  inputs = {
+    nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";
+    gitea-mirror.url = "github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror";
+    # Or pin to version:
+    # gitea-mirror.url = "github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror/v3.8.11";
+  };
+
+  outputs = { nixpkgs, gitea-mirror, ... }: {
+    nixosConfigurations.your-host = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
+      modules = [
+        gitea-mirror.nixosModules.default
+        {
+          services.gitea-mirror = {
+            enable = true;
+            betterAuthUrl = "https://mirror.example.com";
+            openFirewall = true;
+          };
+        }
+      ];
+    };
+  };
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Maintaining the Distribution
+
+### Releasing New Versions
+
+```bash
+# 1. Update version in package.json
+vim package.json  # Update version field
+
+# 2. Update flake.nix version (line 17)
+vim flake.nix  # Update version = "X.Y.Z";
+
+# 3. Commit changes
+git add package.json flake.nix
+git commit -m "chore: bump version to vX.Y.Z"
+
+# 4. Create git tag
+git tag vX.Y.Z
+git push origin main
+git push origin vX.Y.Z
+
+# 5. GitHub Actions builds and caches automatically
+```
+
+Users can then pin to the new version:
+```bash
+nix run github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror/vX.Y.Z
+```
+
+### Updating Flake Lock
+
+The `flake.lock` file pins all dependencies. Update it periodically:
+
+```bash
+# Update all inputs
+nix flake update
+
+# Update specific input
+nix flake lock --update-input nixpkgs
+
+# Test after update
+nix build
+nix flake check
+
+# Commit the updated lock file
+git add flake.lock
+git commit -m "chore: update flake dependencies"
+git push
+```
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting Distribution Issues
+
+### Users Report Build Failures
+
+1. **Check GitHub Actions:** Ensure CI is passing
+2. **Test locally:** `nix flake check`
+3. **Check flake.lock:** May need update if dependencies changed
+
+### CI Cache Not Working
+
+1. **Check workflow logs:** Review GitHub Actions for errors
+2. **Clear cache:** GitHub Actions → Caches → Delete relevant cache
+3. **Verify flake.lock:** May need `nix flake update` if dependencies changed
+
+### Version Pinning Not Working
+
+```bash
+# Verify tag exists
+git tag -l
+
+# Ensure tag is pushed
+git ls-remote --tags origin
+
+# Test specific tag
+nix run github:RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror/v3.8.11
+```
+
+---
+
+## Advanced: Custom Binary Cache
+
+If you prefer self-hosting instead of Cachix:
+
+### Option 1: S3-Compatible Storage
+
+```nix
+# Generate signing key
+nix-store --generate-binary-cache-key cache.example.com cache-priv-key.pem cache-pub-key.pem
+
+# Push to S3
+nix copy --to s3://my-nix-cache?region=us-east-1 $(nix-build)
+```
+
+Users configure:
+```nix
+substituters = https://my-bucket.s3.amazonaws.com/nix-cache
+trusted-public-keys = cache.example.com:BASE64_PUBLIC_KEY
+```
+
+### Option 2: Self-Hosted Nix Store
+
+Run `nix-serve` on your server:
+
+```bash
+# On server
+nix-serve -p 8080
+
+# Behind nginx/caddy
+proxy_pass http://localhost:8080;
+```
+
+Users configure:
+```nix
+substituters = https://cache.example.com
+trusted-public-keys = YOUR_KEY
+```
+
+---
+
+## Comparison: Distribution Methods
+
+| Method | Setup Time | User Speed | Cost | Discoverability |
+|--------|-----------|------------|------|-----------------|
+| Direct GitHub | 0 min | Slow (build) | Free | Low |
+| nixpkgs | Hours/days | Fast (binary) | Free | High |
+| Self-hosted cache | 30+ min | Fast (binary) | Server cost | Low |
+
+**Current approach:** Direct GitHub consumption with CI validation using Magic Nix Cache. Users build locally (reproducible via flake.lock). Consider **nixpkgs** submission for maximum reach once the package is mature.

+### Example: Authentik SSO Setup
+
+Working Authentik deployments (see [#134](https://github.com/RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror/issues/134)) follow these steps:
+
+1. In Authentik, create a new **Application** and OIDC **Provider** (implicit flow works well for testing).
+2. Start creating an SSO provider inside Gitea Mirror so you can copy the redirect URL shown (`https://your-domain.com/api/auth/sso/callback/authentik` if you pick `authentik` as your Provider ID).
+3. Paste that redirect URL into the Authentik Provider configuration and finish creating the provider.
+4. Copy the Authentik issuer URL, client ID, and client secret.
+5. Back in Gitea Mirror:
+   - Issuer URL: the exact value from Authentik (keep any trailing slash Authentik shows).
+   - Provider ID: match the one you used in step 2.
+   - Click **Discover** so Gitea Mirror stores the authorization, token, and JWKS endpoints (Authentik publishes them via discovery).
+   - Domain: enter the email domain you expect to match (e.g. `example.com`).
+6. Save the provider and test the login flow.
+
+Notes:
+- Make sure `BETTER_AUTH_URL` and (if you serve the UI from multiple origins) `BETTER_AUTH_TRUSTED_ORIGINS` point at the public URL users reach. A mismatch can surface as 500 errors after redirect.
+- Authentik must report the user’s email as verified (default behavior) so Gitea Mirror can auto-link accounts.
+- If you created an Authentik provider before v3.8.10 you should delete it and re-add it after upgrading; older versions saved incomplete endpoint data which leads to the `url.startsWith` error explained in the Troubleshooting section.

+    question: "What is Gitea Mirror and why do I need it?",
+    answer: "Gitea Mirror is a self-hosted tool that automatically backs up your GitHub repositories to your own Gitea server. You need it because GitHub outages, account issues, or policy changes can lock you out of your code. With Gitea Mirror, you own your backups completely—no monthly fees, no third-party storage, just full control over your repository history, issues, pull requests, and releases."
+  },
+  {
+    question: "How is this different from BackHub or Rewind?",
+    answer: "BackHub and Rewind are cloud services that cost $600-2400/year and store your code on their servers. Gitea Mirror is free, open source, and runs on your own infrastructure. You pay $0/month and have complete data ownership. The tradeoff: you manage the infrastructure yourself, while cloud services are fully managed."
+  },
+  {
+    question: "Does Gitea Mirror backup issues, pull requests, and releases?",
+    answer: "Yes! Enable 'Mirror metadata' in settings to backup issues with comments, labels, and assignees. Pull requests are mirrored as enriched issues with full metadata, commit history, and file changes (Gitea's API doesn't support creating PRs from external sources). Releases, including binary assets, and wiki pages are also backed up when enabled."
+  },
+  {
+    question: "How long does setup take?",
+    answer: "15-20 minutes with Docker. Run 'docker compose -f docker-compose.alt.yml up -d', visit localhost:4321, create an account, paste your GitHub and Gitea tokens, select repos to backup—done. The Proxmox LXC one-liner is even faster. No complex configuration files or manual scripting required."
+  },
+  {
+    question: "What happens if GitHub goes down or I lose access?",
+    answer: "You can immediately clone from your Gitea server instead. Your local backups include full commit history, branches, tags, issues, releases—everything. Recovery time is typically under 2 minutes (just point git to your Gitea URL). This is why it's called disaster recovery, not just mirroring."
+  },
+  {
+    question: "How often does it sync with GitHub?",
+    answer: "Configurable from every 15 minutes to once per day (or longer). Most users choose 1-8 hours based on how fresh they want backups. The scheduler auto-discovers new repos and respects per-repo intervals, unlike Gitea's built-in mirroring which defaults to 24 hours."
+  },
+  {
+    question: "Can I backup starred repositories?",
+    answer: "Yes! Gitea Mirror can automatically backup all your GitHub stars into a dedicated Gitea organization. Perfect for preserving important open source projects before they disappear (projects get deleted, renamed, or removed all the time)."
+  },
+  {
+    question: "What are the system requirements?",
+    answer: "Minimal: 2 vCPU, 2GB RAM, 5-10GB storage (grows with repo count). Runs on Docker, Kubernetes, Proxmox LXC, or bare metal. Works on AMD64 and ARM64 (Raspberry Pi compatible). A small homelab server or cheap VPS is plenty for personal use."
+  },
+  {
+    question: "Is my GitHub token stored securely?",
+    answer: "Yes. All GitHub and Gitea tokens are encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM. Even if someone gains access to the SQLite database, they can't read your tokens without the encryption key. Use the ENCRYPTION_SECRET environment variable for additional security."
+  },
+  {
+    question: "Can I backup private repositories?",
+    answer: "Absolutely. Just use a GitHub personal access token (classic) with 'repo' scope enabled. Gitea Mirror will backup all repositories you have access to—public, private, and internal."
+  },
+  {
+    question: "What if I have multiple GitHub organizations?",
+    answer: "Gitea Mirror supports multiple organizations with flexible destination strategies: preserve GitHub structure in Gitea, consolidate into a single org, or use mixed mode (personal repos in one place, org repos preserve structure). Edit individual organization destinations via the dashboard."
+  },
+  {
+    question: "Does it support Git LFS (large files)?",
+    answer: "Yes! Enable 'Mirror LFS' in settings. Make sure your Gitea server has LFS enabled (LFS_START_SERVER = true) and Git v2.1.2+. Large assets like videos, datasets, and binaries are backed up alongside your code."
+  },
+  {
+    question: "How do I restore from backup?",
+    answer: "Simple: 'git clone https://your-gitea-server/owner/repo.git'. Your full history, branches, and tags are there. For issues/PRs/releases, they're already in Gitea's web interface. For complete disaster recovery, restore the data volume to a fresh Gitea Mirror instance—everything (config, sync history) is preserved."
+  },
+  {
+    question: "Can I run this alongside a cloud backup service?",
+    answer: "Yes! Many users run Gitea Mirror for local/warm backups while using cloud services for offsite redundancy. Best of both worlds: instant local recovery and geographic disaster protection. Totally compatible."
+  },
+  {
+    question: "Is this enterprise-ready with SLA guarantees?",
+    answer: "No. Gitea Mirror is a community open source project—no 24/7 support, no compliance certifications, no guaranteed uptime. It's perfect for homelabs, indie developers, and small teams comfortable with self-hosting. If you need enterprise SLAs, consider commercial solutions like BackHub or GitHub Enterprise Backup."

+
+# GitHub Backup Tools Compared: Finding the Right Solution
+
+## Why GitHub backups matter
+
+GitHub hosts millions of repositories, but relying on a single platform comes with risks:
+
+- **Outages**: GitHub experiences downtime (most recent: November 2024, October 2024, August 2024)
+- **Account issues**: DMCA takedowns, TOS violations, or account suspensions can lock you out
+- **Accidental deletions**: One wrong click and your repo history vanishes
+- **Company changes**: Microsoft's acquisition led to policy shifts many developers disagreed with
+- **Data sovereignty**: GDPR, HIPAA, or internal policies may require local data control
+
+The question isn't *if* you need backups—it's *which solution* fits your workflow and budget.
+
+## Comparison at a glance
+
+| Feature | Gitea Mirror | BackHub | Rewind Backups | GitHub Enterprise Backup | Manual Scripts |
+|---------|--------------|---------|----------------|-------------------------|----------------|
+| **Cost/Year** | $0 | $600+ | $240+ | $21,000+ | $0 |
+| **Self-Hosted** | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | Optional | ✅ |
+| **Setup Time** | 15 min | 5 min | 5 min | Days | 2+ hours |
+| **Metadata (Issues/PRs)** | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ |
+| **Releases & Assets** | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | Partial |
+| **Wiki Backup** | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | Partial |
+| **Git LFS Support** | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | Manual |
+| **Auto-Discovery** | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ |
+| **Scheduled Syncing** | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | Cron-based |
+| **Data Ownership** | ✅ Full | ❌ | ❌ | ✅ | ✅ Full |
+| **Restore Complexity** | Low | Medium | Medium | Low | High |
+| **Multi-Org Support** | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | Manual |
+| **Real-Time Dashboard** | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ |
+
+## Solution breakdown
+
+### Gitea Mirror (Self-Hosted, Free)
+
+**Best for**: Homelab enthusiasts, indie developers, privacy-conscious teams, cost-sensitive startups
+
+**How it works**: Automatically mirrors your GitHub repositories to your own Gitea server using scheduled syncs. Preserves full history, metadata (issues, PRs as enriched issues, labels, milestones), releases, and wiki content.
+
+**Pros**:
+- ✅ **Zero recurring costs** - Just your hosting/hardware
+- ✅ **Complete data ownership** - Everything stays on your infrastructure
+- ✅ **Privacy-first** - No third parties touch your code
+- ✅ **Customizable** - Open source, fork it, extend it
+- ✅ **Docker-friendly** - One command deployment
+- ✅ **Multi-arch support** - AMD64 and ARM64 (Raspberry Pi compatible)
+- ✅ **No vendor lock-in** - Standard Git repos, portable
+
+**Cons**:
+- ❌ You manage the infrastructure (server, backups, updates)
+- ❌ Community support only (no SLA)
+- ❌ Requires basic Docker/server knowledge
+- ❌ You're responsible for Gitea security updates
+
+**Ideal user**: "I run a homelab with Proxmox/Docker and want full control over my GitHub backups without paying monthly fees."
+
+**Setup**:
+```bash
+docker compose -f docker-compose.alt.yml up -d
+# Visit http://localhost:4321, create account, add tokens
+```
+
+### BackHub (Cloud, $50-200/month)
+
+**Best for**: Teams wanting zero infrastructure management, compliance-focused organizations
+
+**How it works**: SaaS platform that backs up GitHub orgs/repos to their cloud storage. Offers point-in-time recovery and compliance features.
+
+**Pros**:
+- ✅ Fully managed (zero infrastructure)
+- ✅ SOC 2 compliant
+- ✅ Easy restore interface
+- ✅ Supports all GitHub features
+
+**Cons**:
+- ❌ $600-2400/year minimum
+- ❌ Your code lives on their servers
+- ❌ Vendor lock-in for restore process
+- ❌ Pricing scales with repo count
+- ❌ No self-hosted option
+
+**Ideal user**: "I need GitHub backups with compliance guarantees and don't want to manage servers."
+
+### Rewind Backups (Cloud, $20-100/month)
+
+**Best for**: Small teams, agencies managing client repos
+
+**How it works**: Cloud backup service that snapshots GitHub data daily/hourly with web-based restore.
+
+**Pros**:
+- ✅ Simple setup (OAuth connection)
+- ✅ User-friendly restore UI
+- ✅ Supports multiple SaaS platforms (not just GitHub)
+
+**Cons**:
+- ❌ $240-1200/year
+- ❌ Cloud-only storage
+- ❌ Restore requires their platform
+- ❌ Limited to their backup schedule
+- ❌ No local/offline access
+
+**Ideal user**: "I backup multiple SaaS tools and want one dashboard for everything."
+
+### GitHub Enterprise Backup Utilities (Self-Hosted, Requires GHE)
+
+**Best for**: Large enterprises already on GitHub Enterprise
+
+**How it works**: Official GitHub tool for backing up GitHub Enterprise Server instances. Creates encrypted backup snapshots.
+
+**Pros**:
+- ✅ Official GitHub tool
+- ✅ Enterprise-grade
+- ✅ Compliance-ready
+
+**Cons**:
+- ❌ Requires GitHub Enterprise license ($21k+/year for 10 users)
+- ❌ Only works with Enterprise Server, not GitHub.com
+- ❌ Complex setup and maintenance
+- ❌ Overkill for small teams
+
+**Ideal user**: "We're already paying for GitHub Enterprise and need official backup tooling."
+
+### Manual Git Scripts (DIY, Free but Brittle)
+
+**Best for**: Minimalists with few repos and technical expertise
+
+**How it works**: Cron jobs that run `git clone --mirror` for each repo.
+
+**Pros**:
+- ✅ Zero cost
+- ✅ Simple concept
+- ✅ No third-party dependencies
+
+**Cons**:
+- ❌ No metadata backup (issues, PRs, releases lost)
+- ❌ Manual discovery of new repos
+- ❌ No LFS support without extra work
+- ❌ Fails silently (no health checks)
+- ❌ High maintenance overhead
+- ❌ No organization/bulk operations
+- ❌ Wiki requires separate cloning logic
+
+**Ideal user**: "I have 2-3 repos and enjoy writing Bash scripts."
+
+## Decision framework
+
+### Choose Gitea Mirror if you:
+- Want $0 recurring costs
+- Run a homelab or have spare hardware
+- Value data ownership and privacy
+- Are comfortable with Docker/basic sysadmin tasks
+- Need to back up personal repos or small org (<50 repos)
+- Want to learn self-hosting skills
+
+### Choose BackHub if you:
+- Have budget for managed services ($50-200/mo)
+- Need SOC 2 compliance
+- Want zero infrastructure management
+- Back up 10+ organizations
+- Require guaranteed SLA
+
+### Choose Rewind if you:
+- Back up multiple SaaS tools (not just GitHub)
+- Have limited budget ($20-50/mo)
+- Want dead-simple restore UX
+- Don't need self-hosted storage
+
+### Choose GitHub Enterprise Backup if you:
+- Already have GitHub Enterprise Server
+- Need official support contracts
+- Operate at enterprise scale (hundreds of users)
+- Have compliance requirements for official tooling
+
+### Choose Manual Scripts if you:
+- Have <5 repos
+- Don't care about metadata/issues/PRs
+- Enjoy scripting and troubleshooting
+- Have time to maintain cron jobs
+
+## Real-world cost comparison (5-year total)
+
+Assuming 50 repositories, 10 active contributors:
+
+| Solution | Year 1 | Year 5 Total | Notes |
+|----------|--------|--------------|-------|
+| **Gitea Mirror** | $0-50 | $0-250 | Only hardware/hosting costs (VPS: ~$50/yr) |
+| **BackHub** | $1,200 | $6,000 | Scales with repos |
+| **Rewind** | $600 | $3,000 | Mid-tier plan |
+| **GitHub Enterprise Backup** | $21,000+ | $105,000+ | Requires GHE license |
+| **Manual Scripts** | $0 | $0 | Plus hundreds of hours maintaining |
+
+## Migration paths
+
+### From cloud backup to Gitea Mirror
+1. Export backup data from your cloud provider (if supported)
+2. Deploy Gitea Mirror following the [backup playbook](/use-cases/backup-github-repositories/)
+3. Let Gitea Mirror rebuild from GitHub (preserves all metadata)
+4. Cancel cloud subscription once validated
+
+### From manual scripts to Gitea Mirror
+1. Note your current repo list
+2. Deploy Gitea Mirror and connect GitHub
+3. Auto-import handles discovery
+4. Delete cron jobs once sync confirmed
+
+### From Gitea Mirror to other solutions
+Your repos are standard Git mirrors—clone from Gitea and push to any other service. Zero lock-in.
+
+## Frequently asked questions
+
+### Can I use Gitea Mirror alongside a cloud backup service?
+
+Absolutely! Gitea Mirror adds a self-hosted "warm backup" layer while cloud services provide offsite redundancy. Best of both worlds.
+
+### What if my hardware fails?
+
+Snapshot your Gitea Mirror data volume regularly using ZFS, Btrfs, or tools like Restic. Store snapshots offsite. The GitHub → Gitea Mirror sync is idempotent—spin up a new instance, restore data volume, and it resumes.
+
+### How does Gitea Mirror compare for disaster recovery?
+
+**RTO (Recovery Time Objective)**: Minutes—just `git clone` from your Gitea server.
+**RPO (Recovery Point Objective)**: Depends on sync interval (15 min - 24 hours typical).
+
+Cloud services have similar RPO but may have slower RTO if you need to restore hundreds of repos through a web UI.
+
+### Can I try Gitea Mirror without committing?
+
+Yes! The Docker setup takes 15 minutes. Test with a few repos, evaluate, then scale or remove with `docker compose down -v`.
+
+### Does Gitea Mirror work with GitHub Enterprise Cloud?
+
+Yes, as long as you have API access and a personal access token. The GitHub API endpoint is configurable.
+
+## Next steps
+
+- **Ready to self-host?** Follow the [GitHub backup playbook](/use-cases/backup-github-repositories/)
+- **Need multi-tenant?** See [Proxmox LXC deployment](/use-cases/proxmox-lxc-homelab/) or [Kubernetes Helm chart](/use-cases/deploy-with-helm-chart/)
+- **Questions?** [Open a GitHub discussion](https://github.com/RayLabsHQ/gitea-mirror/discussions)
+
+## Honest assessment
+
+Gitea Mirror is **not** enterprise SaaS. There's no 24/7 support, no compliance certifications, no guaranteed uptime. It's a well-maintained open source project built by and for developers who value ownership and cost-effectiveness.
+
+If you need a pager number when things break, choose a commercial solution. If you enjoy owning your infrastructure and solving problems, Gitea Mirror saves thousands of dollars annually while giving you complete control.
+
+The best backup solution is the one you'll actually use and test. Choose based on your skills, budget, and risk tolerance—not marketing promises.

-## Why run it on Proxmox
+## The Homelab GitHub Backup Appliance
 
-When most of your homelab lives in Proxmox VE, the community LXC script is the fastest path from zero to a managed Gitea Mirror node. It handles Bun, systemd, persistent storage, and future upgrades so you can focus on keeping Git backups fresh.
+Running GitHub backups in your homelab means **complete data ownership** without monthly SaaS fees. When most of your infrastructure lives in Proxmox VE, the community LXC script is the fastest path from zero to a dedicated backup appliance.
+
+It handles Bun runtime, systemd services, persistent storage, and future upgrades—so you can focus on keeping your GitHub history safe and synced locally. Perfect for homelabbers who want the peace of mind of offline backups without cloud dependencies.
