Revisit the presentation of the setup information for mirroring repositories
Proposal
Simplify the text. How? To be determined.
Background
There is a lot of text to read regarding the creation of a repository mirror
From #442380 (comment 1846913946)
This info box is quite full of words
Current text:
- The repository must be accessible over http://, https://, ssh:// or git://.
- When using the http:// or https:// protocols, please provide the exact URL to the repository. HTTP redirects will not be followed.
- Do not include the username in the URL, use the username field below if required: https://gitlab.company.com/group/project.git.
- When using the ssh:// protocol, please use the following format: ssh://username@example.com/group/project.git.
- The update action will time out after 180 minutes. For big repositories, use a clone/push combination.
- Git LFS objects will be synced if LFS is enabled for the project. Push mirrors will not sync LFS objects over SSH.
- In case of pull mirroring, your user will be the author of all events in the activity feed that are the result of an update, like new branches being created or new commits being pushed to existing branches.
