All,
I am trying to sync a bunch of Gethub repos with my RHEL satellite system to control what version can be installed on systems. But when doing so using the URL that I do to find the data in gethub, I get errors. In the past I have found through google search that it URL that is used for this is different. Can someone assist? Here are some of the ones I am trying to set up:

helm.sh
kube-vip.io
yq
helmfile

Thanks all,
George

The URL pattern for GitHub-hosted content depends on what you're actually trying to sync into Satellite, since GitHub isn't a traditional package repository.

For Helm charts, the chart repository URL is different from the GitHub project page:

• helm.sh: https://charts.helm.sh/stable
• kube-vip: https://kube-vip.io/helm-charts
• helmfile: no official Helm chart, it's distributed as a binary

For binary tools like yq and helmfile, GitHub hosts them as release assets under URLs like:
https://github.com/mikefarah/yq/releases/download/v4.x.x/yq_linux_amd64

Those won't work directly as Satellite content sources since they're not RPM/yum repos.

Could you share what type of content source you're adding in Satellite (Yum, File, Generic Content)? And what exact errors you're seeing? That'll make it much easier to pin down the right URL format for each one.
