Commit to a repository daily — ensuring a consistent and uninterrupted commit streak.

Requirements

pip install -r requirements.txt

These steps ensure a robust setup for managing your GitHub repository effectively, integrating automated daily commits seamlessly into your workflow.

Git Configuration: Ensure your system is authenticated with Git for seamless operation.
Download and Repository Creation: Begin by cloning this repository and creating your own fork on GitHub.
Initial Commit: Prioritize committing the history.json file as the first step before initiating daily commits.

Important: Upon completing the repository setup and Git configuration, the next critical step involves establishing a daily commit routine.

While the setup is straightforward, there are potential issues that may arise:

Commit Failures: In case of commit failures, consider re-cloning or merging the repository on your local machine.

Note: This has mostly been remedied by pulling the repo before committing any updates, however, it’s possible it could still fail.
Git Configuration: Resolve any Git configuration issues by generating a GitHub token through developer settings and ensuring it is properly configured on your system.
