Usage

MohamedElashri

This guide explains how to create a persistent SSH reverse tunnel using systemd without relying on tools like autossh. This approach automatically restarts the SSH tunnel if it fails or gets stuck due to disconnections.

Why Use systemd for SSH Tunnels?

Using systemd provides several benefits over standalone SSH or autossh:

• Automatic Restart: If the SSH connection fails, systemd restarts it automatically.
• Keep Alive: Prevents stale SSH connections by using SSH's ServerAliveInterval and ServerAliveCountMax.
• Clean and Simple: Avoids external tools and manages the service with native system management.

Steps to Set Up

This bash function automates the process of initializing a Git repository, creating a GitHub repository, and pushing your local files—all from the command line using the GitHub CLI (gh). It also disables wikis and issues for the created repo.

Add the following function to your .bashrc or .zshrc file:

create_and_push_repo() {
    if ! command -v gh &> /dev/null
    then
        echo "Error: GitHub CLI (gh) is not installed. Please install it first."
