Regular maintenance

This page describes regular maintenance that needs to be performed, such as rotating tokens and keys.

GitHub sync token rotation

The internal GitLab repositories are automatically synched to GitHub. The GitHub personal access token for that sync is valid for maximum 1 year, so it needs be rolled over regularly.

For documentation to configure the sync, see:

• https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/repository/mirror/
• https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/repository/mirror/push.html
• https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/repository/mirror/push.html#set-up-a-push-mirror-from-gitlab-to-github

The current token will expire on 2025-03-01.

The ax-github-mirror.py script can be used to configure/update the mirroring.

GPG key rotation

The current Across GPG key will expire on 2025-06-06.
