Description

Issue Report

This issue arose when I was trying to effectively "duplicate" a project. I tried to do this by syncing the original repo to github and then pulling from that in another project.

To Reproduce

  • [Note: This occurred on a staging project...noting b/c not sure if this is important!]
  • Create project A with workflows
  • Create blank repository
  • Push project A to repo using GH Sync v2
  • Create blank project B
  • Pull repo to project B from repo using GH Sync v2

Expected Result

If syncing from one hosted openfn project to another is supported:

  • Workflows from project A appear in project B

Else:

  • Fail upfront letting me know this isn't possible

Observed Result

  • Workflows from project A removed from the repository and not visible in project B
