Hello, fellow developers and the GoLang community!
It always bothered me when I opened my GitHub profile and saw my contribution charts empty, while I did commit every day to work on GitLab.
So, I thought why not bring my GitLab commits to Github and make my contribution chart look a bit fancy? ✨✨
As you know you master a programming language by building things with it, so I thought of building a very basic/simple tool using GoLang that does exactly that, fetch my commits from GitLab, specifically the dates of the commits, then push those to a private GitHub repo as an empty commits reserving their dates for history records.
The tool doesn't get any information from GitLab except the dates and pushes them to GitHub as empty commits with a standard commit message.
And my chart transformed like this! 🌟🌟
The tool is designed in a way to support multiple different repository management tools such as BitBucket, but if you need that your contribution is more than welcome!
Currently, only GitLab & GitHub.
