Hello - newcomer to Gitlab CI here (and devops in general)! I have a simple use case and I’m trying to decide if Gitlab CI would be the best fit for me.
We have a need to set up a shared team repo on our existing internal gitlab server, and have the following actions performed against it:
- Forks several public GitHub repos into the main repo.
- Performs regex based modifications against certain files in each of these forks
- Commit any changes made back to the fork so the rest of the internal team can pull the changes.
- Repeat 1-3 say once a week.
Would CI/CD be a good fit for this? I’m thinking a gitlab runner with a simple ubuntu docker image, but I don’t know if I’m overthinking this either and am open to other suggestions that help me accomplish the listed goal.
Thank you!
