Since you’re already in Python, perhaps my `skit` package could be of service? https://pypi.org/project/skit-game/ It depends on Python and Pillow.

It’s hugged to death now so I can’t re-load the page. But I think the author of this post went groveling into the objects/ directory for their contents. That will work fine until the repo is GC’d, and then those loose objects get moved

I think there are some serious ergonomic issues with forks as they’re presently implemented. However, I’m curious what you intend from: > the GitHub server should be able to apply ACLs based on the push identity That’s essentially exactl

GitHub charges for LFS and has since they initially introduced it, way before Microsoft was involved. Also, the pricing model is changing and will include a minimum of 10GiB for free (250GiB for Team/Enterprise customers). It’s cost-re

I have a 2021 MX-5. The dealer had to do a software update recently which fixed most of the hanging/crashing bugs in the infotainment system. It also fixed a very weird issue where Google Maps would be 5-20 seconds behind on CarPlay (m

This was exactly my experience trying to buy an Apple Watch from the Apple Store just before the pandemic. I had done all the research ahead of time and knew exactly what I needed. “Do you have an appointment?” No. “Oh, it’ll be about 45 mi

We updated our Git version which made this change for the reasons explained. At the time we didn't foresee the impact. We're quickly rolling back the change now, as it's clear we need to look at this more closely to see if we

Hey folks. I'm the product manager for Git at GitHub. We're sorry for the breakage, we're reverting the change, and we'll communicate better about such changes in the future (including timelines). Also posted here: http

As part of the deprecation plans, I updated the look of that site to match modern GitHub branding a little better.

As the PM who ended up finally killing it, I (on behalf of the team) thank you for your "joke" that wasn't really a joke. It did help some customers who had legacy SVN workloads land on GitHub. I wanted to announce this on Ap

This change doesn't force you to have a GitHub account. https:// access to public repos doesn't require authentication.

Noted! As you surmise, that's a MUCH bigger lift, but it's worth considering.

This is really expensive for the server (the unshallow step specifically). Consider a partial clone here instead.

`git commit --fixup` and `git rebase --autosquash` automate a bit of the drudgery for this workflow. Sharing because I just got introduced to them recently.
