Syncing Customer-managed Azure DevOps Repo with Adobe Cloud Manager Repo

Instead of directly working with Cloud Manager’s git repository, customers can work with their own git repository or multiple own git repositories. In these cases, an automated synchronization process should be set up to ensure that Cloud Manager’s git repository is always kept up-to-date. With an automation in place, every push to a customer-owned git repository can be automatically forwarded to Cloud Manager’s git repository.

Prerequisites:
To complete this tutorial, you need to have following things

• Azure DevOps Personal Access Token
• Adobe Cloud Manager Access Repo Info
• Setup Azure pipeline

Steps:

1. Create new Azure pipeline and add pipeline variables as secret variables
   a. CloudManager.PAT with value as your Cloud Manager PAT
   b. AzureDevOps.PAT with value as your Azure DevOps PAT

2. Add a Powershell task

3. Refer the below script

# Starter pipeline
# Start with a minimal pipeline that you can customize to build and deploy your code.
# Add steps that build, run tests, deploy, and more:# https://aka.ms/yaml
trigger:
- main

pool:  
    vmImage: ubuntu-latest  

steps:
- task: PowerShell@2  
    inputs:   
    targetType: 'inline'    
        script: |      
            # Write your PowerShell commands here.     
            Write-Host ' - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -'     
            Write-Host ' Reflect Azure Devops repo changes to Cloud Manager repo'      
            Write Host ' - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - '      
            $stageDir = '$(Build.SourcesDirectory)' | Split-Path      
            $githubDir = $stageDir +"/"+"gitHub"      
            $destination = $githubDir +"/"+"<azure-repo-name>.git"      
            #please provide your username      
            $alias = '<userName>:'+ "$(CloudManager.PAT)"      
            #Please make sure, you remove https from azure-repo-clone-url      
            #Example: https://$(AzureDevOps.PAT)@dev.azure.com/santoshsai/_git/MySite      
            $sourceURL = https://$(AzureDevOps.PAT)@<azure-repo-clone-url>      
            #Please make sure, you remove https from cloud-repo-clone-url   
            #Example: @git.cloudmanager.adobe.com/xyzgrouppartnersandbox/MySite/       
            $destURL = 'https://' + $alias + '@<github-repo-clone-url>'      
            #Check if the parent directory exists and delete      
            if((Test-Path -path $githubDir)) {
                   Remove-Item -Path $githubDir -Recurse -force      
             }      
             if(!(Test-Path -path $githubDir)) {
                   New-Item -ItemType directory -Path $githubDir        
                   Set-Location $githubDir        
                   git clone --mirror $sourceURL      
              } else {        
                   Write-Host "The given folder path $githubDir already exists";      
              }      
              Set-Location $destination      
              Write-Output '*****Git removing remote origin****'      
              git remote rm origin      
              Write-Output '*****Git remote add****'      
              git remote add --mirror=fetch origin $destURL      
              Write-Output '*****Git fetch origin****'      
              git fetch $sourceURL      
              Write-Output '*****Git push to Cloud Manager****'      
              git push -f origin --all      
              Write-Output '**Azure Devops repo synced with Cloud Manager repo**'      
              Set-Location $stageDir      
              if((Test-Path -path $githubDir)) {       
                    Remove-Item -Path $githubDir -Recurse -force      
              }

Optional Step:

Specify events that trigger pipelines

Use triggers to run a pipeline automatically. Azure Pipelines supports many types of triggers. Based on your pipeline’s type

Now, whenever push performs on main or dev branch the pipeline will trigger automatically and perform the action as per script.
