How to copy a complete git repo

gistfile1.txt

What I asked <<origin company>> to give us:

  In order to clone the repositories and get the branches please have them follow
  this procedure on each of the repos:

  # Let's mirror the <<reponame>> repo:
  git clone --mirror git@github.com/<<origin company>>/path/to/<<reponame>>.git <<reponame>>/.git



For each reponame.git provided:

  mkdir reponame
  move reponame.git reponame\.git
  cd reponame\.git
  git config --local --bool core.bare false
  cd ..
  git checkout master
  cd ..
  create reponame on bitbucket, no readme
  git remote add bitbucket https://<<userid>>@bitbucket.org/<<newco>>/reponame.git
  git push --all bitbucket
  git push --tags bitbucket
  git remote set-url origin https://<<userid>>@bitbucket.org/<<newco>>/<<reponame>>.git

  At this point, the repo you've just processed should be ready for people to
  clone and start working with. People who clone this should see no <<origin company>> cruft
  in the basic mechanism. Internal submodules will still need to be dealt with.
