Blazingly fast tool to backup a GitHub organisation

This tool creates a backup for a GitHub organisation. It clones the repositories if they do not exist in the backup. If they already exist, it executes a git fetch.

The tool will perform clones and fetches in parallel. Downloading a 10GB GitHub organisation takes only 2 minutes.
