If you're using l2md (which mirrors the repositories itself), or want to
script this yourself, then you can check the manifest on lore to see if
there are new repositories to be mirrored. I have a script that I run
daily to check that. You can grab the manifest using:

$ curl -s https://lore.kernel.org/manifest.js.gz | zcat | jq

Not sure if public-inbox-clone/public-inbox-fetch can instead be used
with l2md.
