 So, how do you mirror a repository to github then?
 I think the easiest and most straightforward way is to specify a git-hook to do exactly this.
 First specify both remotes, in my chase those are `git remote add <origin> <repo-URL>` and `git remote add <mirror> <repo-URL>`.
-Now create the hook: `$ echo 'git push --force --mirror <mirror>' > .git/hooks/post-commit'.
-The next time you push your changes into `<origin>` the changes will be automatically mirrored into `<mirror>`.

+Forget the idea to use git hooks, first I forgot to make the hook executable and second it was the wrong type, instead of `post-commit` I had to use `pre-push`. Nonetheless, it won't work that way.
+But, luckily there are is another apporach that is simply adding another push URL to the remote.
+`$ git remote set-url --add <origin> <mirror-URL>`

 Voila!
 
 More information about git hooks can be found in `man githooks` and usually there is a bunch of sample files in `.git/hooks`.
