Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by researching the wmill push/pull commands and whether a Windmill-side cron job can reach GitHub while the instance remains behind a VPN. Done would mean documenting or implementing a supported way to sync scripts, flows, and apps from Windmill to GitHub without GitHub Actions reaching the instance.

Description

Hi,
Thanks for nice github actions that do great job, syncing things from GH to windmill.

But is there any way we can setup script by cron that will be triggered on windmill itself and will sync the scripts/flows/apps from windmill instance to github ? The reason I need this is that our windmill instance running under VPN and is not visible from the internet and this way github cannot access it when running wmill push/pull commands. But windmill instance can access github instead.

I know that we can look into self-hosted runners for GHA, but I'm looking for simpler solution.

Thanks
