⚠ This project is no longer maintained

This project is no longer maintained. In October 2023 I've created create-project, a CLI tool to interactively create a project. That project does the same as this template does, and way more, and therefore this project is being archived. I recommend using create-project instead.

---

A template for creating new repositories.

• Commit style using commitlint.
• Code formatting using Prettier.
• Version management using semantic-release.
• Dependency management using WhiteSource Renovate.

Install

This describes how to use this template, for which there are two options.

1. Create a new repository on GitHub and select vidavidorra/repo-template as Repository template.
2. Create a new empty repository on and merge this template.

   $ git commit --allow-empty -m 'chore: create HEAD'
   $ git remote add -t main upstream git@github.com:vidavidorra/repo-template.git
   $ export REPO_TEMPLATE_TAG="$(git -c 'versionsort.suffix=-' ls-remote --exit-code --refs --sort='version:refname' --tags upstream 'v*.*.*' | tail --lines=1 | cut --delimiter='/' --fields=3)"
   $ export REPO_TEMPLATE_COMMIT="$(git -c 'versionsort.suffix=-' ls-remote --exit-code --refs --sort='version:refname' --tags upstream 'v*.*.*' | tail --lines=1 | cut --characters=1-7)"
   $ git fetch --no-tags upstream tag "${REPO_TEMPLATE_TAG}"
   $ git merge --allow-unrelated-histories --squash "${REPO_TEMPLATE_TAG}"
   $ git commit --message "chore: initialise from vidavidorra/repo-template@${REPO_TEMPLATE_COMMIT} (${REPO_TEMPLATE_TAG})"
   $ git tag --delete "${REPO_TEMPLATE_TAG}"
   $ git remote remove upstream
   $ git push
