Automate Workflow Backups to GitHub with Subfolder Organization

This workflow leverages the n8n API to export all workflows and backs them up to a specified GitHub repository. It organizes the workflows into subfolders within the repository based on their tags, making it easier to manage and locate specific workflows. The workflow checks if a file already exists in the repository and updates it if there are changes, creates a new file if it doesn't exist, or ignores it if it's unchanged. This is ideal for users who want to securely backup their workflows or prepare for server migration.
