Is there a way to track github clones?

Question

I'm trying to figure out a way to track github clones. On their website they say due to performance they do not track the information. I was thinking about creating a github hosted on my website that redirects the clone command to the correct location but I'm not sure how I would go about doing this. Has anyone had any success doing this or have any resources they can point me to? Thanks

Answer 1

If anyone else wants to know how to do this. I grabbed the git file from the repo using wget. Then hosted that file on my server. Then started saving my apache logs to a MySQL table. Anytime someone git's from my location I get the stats.
