Would anyone like more documentation on manually bootstrapping Git repositories?

Hi!

I'm using Flux to manage home automation services that run on a small NUC in my house with GitOps. While the GitHub repository I've connected to is private, I might want to make it public someday and opted to bootstrap Flux manually and disable automatically pushing gotk-{sync,components}.yaml into it.

I found the documentation on how to do this lacking. While it wasn't conceptually difficult to figure this out (create an SSH-based GitRepository CR with a read-only GitHub deploy key), seeing the response to the only discussion thread I could find on this being, effectively, "trust us bro, you want the automation" was disappointing.

Is anyone else interested in more documentation on this use case? I'm happy to author the pull request for it if there's enough demand.

Thanks for reading!
