🌱 Automated Daily Commits for a Green GitHub Heatmap 🌱

This setup will make daily commits to keep your GitHub contributions heatmap green! Since contributions don’t count from forked repositories, please follow the steps below to create your own repository.

🚀 Quick Start Guide

1. 📥 Download the files

   • Click the link above to download the .github/workflows folder and greenify.py script.

2. 🔨 Create a New Repository

   • In your GitHub account, create a new repository (avoid using a fork as it won’t work for contributions).

3. 📂 Copy Files into Your Repository

   • Unzip the download, then add the .github/workflows folder and greenify.py to your new repository.

4. 🔑 Create a Personal Access Token (PAT)

   • Go to Settings > Developer settings > Personal access tokens.
   • Generate a token with repo permissions (make sure to copy it).

5. 🛠 Add the PAT to Your Repository as a Secret

   • Go to Settings > Secrets and variables > Actions in your new repository.
   • Click New repository secret and set the name to API_KEY, then paste your token as the value.

6. ⚙️ Customize the Script

   • You need to modify the greenify.py script to adjust:
     • Username, Repository name
     • Number of commits
     • File paths, content, or commit messages

7. 🕰 Set the Commit Schedule

   • The default schedule runs at 6:00 PM Nepal Time (NPT). If you want a different time, change the cron in .github/workflows/daily-commit.yml:

     cron: '12 12 * * *'  # Default: Runs daily at 6:00 PM NPT

8. ⬆️ Push Your Changes

   • Commit and push everything to GitHub:

     git add .
     git commit -m "Set up daily commit workflow"
     git push origin main

⚡ Workflow Overview

• Automated Commits: The workflow will authenticate with your PAT and run greenify.py daily, making commits to keep your GitHub heatmap green.
