Win the GitHub game with artistic green squares!

Works with GitLab, too. Just tell them it's like GitHub with blue squares.

Why?

Because I saw and shared this:

And @PeteMarkowsky was like:

re: green squares has anyone released a github action that just does a commit to a private repo as you

So I made this.

How?

• Make a 53x7 image of whatever you want
• Node.js v12 or later or something I don't know
• yarn install
• Include private contributions in your GitHub settings to up your green square game
• Make a private repo on GitHub to hide your secrets
• Run node index.js image.png ~/game git@github.com:yourname/yourrepo.git and git push force origin
• Bask in the glory of your new resume-crushing GitHub profile

It doesn't work?

• Fiddle with the MAX_COMMITS environment variable or something
• Delete, re-create the private repo, and push again
• Wait a few minutes
• 🀷β€?♀οΈ?

I made this before seeing the above projects.

Also, this version uses git fast-import to create a git repo, which is πŸ”₯
