Mirroring a Git repostory

The firm I recently stated working at just moved to Git and I am the only resource then knows Git. I get asked so many times a day on how to mirror a git repostory.

From the birds eyes very its very easy:

    git clone --mirror git@git.com:project project
    cd project
    git remote add github git@github.com:username/project.git

    In cron Job
    cd /pathto/project && git fetch -q && git push -q --mirror github

Thats how easy it is to mirror a Git Project on to GitHub
