How to make a local mirror of the Chaotic-Aur

[warcaninos]

Hi i would like to know what is the proper way of making a mirror of the chaotic-aur
i found the way to do it for the regular core/multilib/extra with rsync and the only way i found for garuda and chaotic-aur is by using chatgpt to make a wget command:

wget -r -np -nH -N \
--cut-dirs=1 \
--reject-regex="/archive/" \
https://builds.garudalinux.org/repos/

is there a cleaner way than this ?
Thanks

Thanks for posting about your issue on the Garuda Linux Forum!

It seems your post does not include the necessary system information as requested in the new post template:

• After a reboot (if applicable), post the FULL output of garuda-inxi in the body of the post (not linked externally, or collapsed with the “hide details” feature)
• Format terminal output (including your garuda-inxi) as a code block by clicking the preformatted text button (</>), or put three tildes (~) above and below the text

Please promptly edit your post and provide the garuda-inxi output. This will help the volunteers that will be viewing your post.
(If you are unable to provide this information due to the issue you are currently facing, you can ignore this.)

Hi. If you want to become an official mirror, please let us know.

Otherwise, you there should be an exposed rsync port that you can use on builds.garudalinux.org.

Thanks i don’t really know what kind of need a mirror need to respect but the reason i want to make a copy of the chaotic-aur and garuda is because:

• where i work internet is slow.
• on some pc i don’t want them to access the internet.
• for a backup copy of everything i can because i like to archive things to my extent.
