maia git_scan : this command scans one or more Git repositories and posts commits to the MAIA web app.

Usage
  1. execute maia git_scan regularly to make sure that the MAIA web app is synchronized with the Git repositories.
    • The option repo-name or repo-file should be used.
    • The command creates a git clone before scanning. If the clone exists, it will be updated before scanning.
  2. execute maia git_scan in conjunction with other commands e.g. in preparation for the maia build command.
    • suitable when integrating MAIA Agent into an existing build pipeline.
    • the command must be executed from the directory of an already cloned repository.
    • no repository option (repo-name or repo-file) should be used.
