I would most likely be using C11 for threads.h and stdatomic.h for foreseeable future, the problem with using the latest and greatest standard is the risk of compiler not supporting it, so I would likely wait at least 5 years before switching to C23 sometime in 2028 or 2029. There was a bit of a controversy around optional bound checking in C11 that they end up removing/deprecating it, I am sure C23 would have something going on.

I don't plan on using #embed or constexpr in favor of maintaining common C programming practices, language familiarity is still an important factor to thriving project as much as people nag on me to rewrite everything in Rust or C++.

Probably this script:

#!/bin/bash

if [ -z "$1" ]
then
        echo "Please provide git repository url as an argument for this script."
        exit 1
fi
regex='(https?|ftp|file)://[-[:alnum:]\+&@#/%?=~_|!:,.;]*[-[:alnum:]\+&@#/%=~_|]'
if [[ $1 =~ $regex ]]
then
basename=$(basename $1)
reponame=${basename%.*}
curl -X 'POST' 'https://localgitea.com/api/v1/repos/migrate?access_token={Access Token Here}' \
  --insecure \
  -H "accept: application/json" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{  "clone_addr": "'"$1"'",  "issues": false,  "labels": false,  "lfs": false,  "mirror": true,  "mirror_interval": "96h0m0s",  "private": false, "repo_name": "'"$reponame"'", "pull_requests": true,  "releases": true, "repo_owner": "githubpublic",  "service": "git",  "wiki": true}'
else
        echo "Invalid URL"
        exit 1
fi

You can adjust it as needed and as for why I have --insecure flag, I have a direct network cable between my PC to the server, so encryption or HTTPS is not needed here. This is probably my favorite command, because I would write above as .sra.sh in home directory and then alias the .bashrc to make a sra command by adding alias sra=/home/{your user account}/.sra.sh in .bashrc and from there, anytime I have an interesting repository that I want to archive, I simply run sra {git url} and that's it. It also specify the mirror interval manually for 4 days interval rather than every 8 hours that would've needlessly spam the git server.

This is something I rely on everyday both as developer and system admin, I would maintain a different supply chain and prevent a supply chain attacks by generating my own package feeds/registry automatically from Gitea/Forgejo.

Edited to Add: I noticed this community is Powershell, here the powershell version of above:

param (
    [Parameter(Mandatory=$true)]
    [string]$gitRepoUrl
)

function Test-Url($url) {
    $regex = "(https?|ftp|file)://[-[:alnum:]\+&@#/%?=~_|!:,.;]*[-[:alnum:]\+&@#/%=~_|]"
    return $url -match $regex
}


$basename = Split-Path $gitRepoUrl -Leaf
$reponame = [System.IO.Path]::GetFileNameWithoutExtension($basename)

$headers = @{
    'accept' = 'application/json'
    'Content-Type' = 'application/json'
}

$body = @{
    'clone_addr' = $gitRepoUrl

Because code that they released to public are usually MIT licensed like Dotnet Core Runtime. They just have a long history of hating GPL licensed software.

I tried to use it, but it have some big issues in reliability, because at the end of the day, despise the dataset it's trained on, it's still something I describes as a "language interpolation."

It sometime make TERRIBLE recommendations for which tools/libraries I should explore, because it assumes that those libraries might have support. Those libraries never does and so I wasted weeks on it. (It doesn't help that both code and project are undocumented.)

So after that experience, I demote ChatGPT usefulness to just "cleaning up pre-written documentation so it sounds better." That's it.
