I was wondering how I could download all data from my account on my computer from the website https://gitea.com

I wanted to centralize my data on one computer so how could I download all the data from my account?

Thanks in advance!

Just clone/mirror your repositories to your computer

Yes but is there any way to clone all data at once. For example if I want to send my entire profile to another host, could I?

You could write some scripts to do that. Or we should implement this on tea command.

I don't know how to create a script for that, and what is a tea command?

@chopin2712 you could a programming language of your choice to pull a list of all the repos on a gitea instance belonging to your user, and then use git clone against that list.

Information about the tea command can be found here: https://gitea.com/gitea/tea/

Yes but is there anyway to do it automatically? I believe that organizations who have lots of different projects would be bored to copy and paste all project's names one by one in a sh file. It 's not my case but I am curious.
