# josh-sync
Bidirectional monorepo ↔ subrepo sync via [josh-proxy](https://josh-project.github.io/josh/). Supports multiple sync targets from a single config.
## Quick Start
### 1. Add config
Create `.josh-sync.yml` in your monorepo root:
```yaml
josh:
proxy_url: "https://josh.example.com"
monorepo_path: "org/monorepo"
targets:
- name: "billing"
subfolder: "services/billing"
josh_filter: ":/services/billing"
subrepo_url: "git@gitea.example.com:ext/billing.git"
subrepo_auth: "ssh"
branches:
main: main
forward_only: []
bot:
name: "josh-sync-bot"
email: "josh-sync-bot@example.com"
trailer: "Josh-Sync-Origin"
```
### 2. Add CI workflows
Copy from [examples/](examples/) and customize paths/branches:
```yaml
# .gitea/workflows/josh-sync-forward.yml
- uses: https://your-gitea.example.com/org/josh-sync@v1
with:
direction: forward
env:
SYNC_BOT_USER: ${{ secrets.SYNC_BOT_USER }}
SYNC_BOT_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.SYNC_BOT_TOKEN }}
SUBREPO_SSH_KEY: ${{ secrets.SUBREPO_SSH_KEY }}
```
### 3. Local dev (Nix)
Add josh-sync as a flake input, then:
```nix
{ inputs, ... }: {
imports = [ inputs.josh-sync.devenvModules.default ];
}
```
Run `josh-sync preflight` to validate your setup.
## CLI
```
josh-sync sync [--forward|--reverse] [--target NAME[,NAME]] [--branch BRANCH]
josh-sync preflight
josh-sync import <target>
josh-sync reset <target>
josh-sync status
josh-sync state show <target> [branch]
josh-sync state reset <target> [branch]
```
## How It Works
- **Forward sync** (mono → subrepo): pushes directly if clean, creates conflict PR if not. Uses `--force-with-lease` for safety.
- **Reverse sync** (subrepo → mono): always creates a PR, never pushes directly.
- **Loop prevention**: `Josh-Sync-Origin:` git trailer filters out bot commits.
- **State tracking**: orphan branch `josh-sync-state` stores JSON per target/branch.
