Git Backup — K2 Plus

Git Backup watches the Klipper configuration folder and automatically backs it up to a GitHub repository whenever a change is made.

Entware required

Git Backup requires git to be installed. Install Entware (option 15) first, then install git via opkg install git git-http.

Prerequisites

   • Click Generate new token (classic)
   • Set expiration to No expiration
   • Check repo scope
   • Copy the token — you will not be able to see it again
