It is hard to keep track of newly created repositories. The idea is to create a tool / script that can find new repositories of users that are already part of this list.

Example:

  • The repositories of @eddex have been added on 01-MAY-2019
  • @eddex creates a new repository on 02-MAY-2019
  • The script should be able to detect this repository

Ideas and improvements are very welcome.

for now the script prints the url of new repos to the console.

Would be nice to print them formatted as markdown (ready to paste to the list) or even add them directly to the list (after manual confirmation of the user).

also consider that some repos are made public long time after they got created..

  • Clarify if the Github API provides the 'made public' date

Unfortunately there is no such thing as a 'made public' date. Those repos will not be found automatically for now.

Some students are so excited for the next semester that they create empty repositories for the modules of the coming semester, 2 months before the semester starts!

  • find a way to handle such cases
