Abusing Github's contribution graph

Faking Contributions

Git has a feature where commits can be amended with older dates.

For the lols (and I was bored), I decided to create a program that would fill GitHub's contributions calendar.

Instructions

Make sure you have Python 2.7 installed

Create a GitHub repository to hold the fake commits

Clone this repository locally

Delete the .git folder (make sure the directory doesn't have a .git folder)

Then run

python faking-contributions.py username password repository

example:

python faking-contributions.py justicesuh hunter2 fake-commits

Creating a word template

python generator.py "the string" filename

example:

python generator.py "oh hai" templates/ohhai

Running with a template

python faking-contributions.py username password repository template

example:

python faking-contributions.py justicesuh hunter2 fake-commits templates/ohhai
