github-game ✅ ✨

Win the GitHub game with artistic green squares!

Screenshot of GitHub activity

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

Why?

Because I saw and shared this:

Tweet from Emily Kager

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
  • 🤷‍♀️

I made this before seeing the above projects.

Also, this version uses git fast-import to create a git repo, which is 🔥
