Tools / Backup Gitlab
This workflow is primarily used for automatic backups and version management, ensuring the security of workflow configurations and credentials. It allows for exporting the current configuration either on a schedule or through manual triggers, and utilizes Git for version control, pushing the backup content to a remote repository. This process effectively prevents data loss or configuration errors, making it suitable for teams or individuals that need to ensure data security and enhance operational efficiency, especially in multi-user collaborative environments, where it ensures that configuration changes are traceable.
