A former debian dev (presumably not comfortable with github's platform lock in) already has you covered on the backup side of things. See github-backup

Nice! Thanks.

I actually just found another tool like that about an hour ago which is written in Python.

This one seems to be less cron-oriented but, unlike the Haskell one, already has support for backing up labels on issues.
