🗂️ Auto Backup

Every 45 minutes, /workspace is automatically uploaded to your Hugging Face repo defined in environment variables:

• BACKUP_REPO → target repo (e.g., username/my-backup)
• HF_TOKEN → your Hugging Face API token

⚠️ On first launch, the backup service will attempt to restore /workspace from your BACKUP_REPO. Make sure the repo exists. If empty, a fresh workspace will be created.

Files are uploaded using a cache-safe method to avoid LFS errors.

---

🚀 Usage

1. Set secrets in Space Settings:

   • BACKUP_REPO
   • HF_TOKEN

   Notes:

   • Leaving either secret empty will disable Auto Backup and restore.
   • All files are wiped on Space restart. Using a private repo is highly recommended.

2. Launch the Space → Access VS Code at http://<space-url>:7860

   • No authentication by default (--auth none).
   • Optional: enable a password via environment variables if desired.

3. Work normally — backups run in the background every 45 minutes.
