+
+#) Wait for the cron job to run (2 minutes should be sufficient), then check the log file:
+
+   .. code:: bash
+
+     less ~/sync.log
+
+   The log file should exist and be empty, if it isn't empty, it contains error messages. If it doesn't exist, the cron job didn't run yet for some reason, try waiting a little longer.

+#) Try pushing a commit to one of the upstream repos and seeing if it gets properly synced to the corresponding mirror repo. The sync job runs every minute, so wait 2 minutes and check.
