Happy Hacktober 🎃 [New to GitHub Check-in]

[queenofcorgis]

The most known holiday in October may be Halloween, but in the open source world, the biggest event is Hacktoberfest!

What is Hacktoberfest? Digitalocean’s annual event for nine years running that celebrates open source contributions, giving back to projects that don’t have the resources to expand, and expand your skills ✏️. There are ways to get involved even with low/non-code contributions as well. The perfect way to jumpstart your GitHub journey is by participating in this much-loved month-long event. Check out the details below ⬇️.

🌟Community Superstars: A round of applause for these community citizens 👏

• @WabashFan for not only giving tons of background information in their question, but coming back to self-solve it as well - nice ​​!
• @welkeyever: Asked a great question on the dependency graph and included THREE examples - help them out by answering!
• @sailingthroughemotion: is new to GitHub and Pages, but they’re already trying out some new themes! Kudos to you and if anyone can help out on why their theme disappeared - dive in 🤿.

Great post summing things up for us @queenofcorgis! Just wanted to ask if raising the GitHub push limit is on the GitHub roadmap. Projects are getting bigger and big so why should the limit stay the same? Unity files can easily exceed 100MB and yes I know Git LFS is an option but it is a pain in the neck to use and the limits are small, I exceeded the limit within 5 days of me uploading a file. Thank you again for the post!

Hi there! Glad you enjoyed the post, thanks for the kind words 😄 . Have you made a discussion about this request here? I don't see one, but once you do feel free to link me or tag me so I can get the appropriate team on visibility 👀

@queenofcorgis No problem! There was already a discussion, not directly suggesting the feature but still there. #68

[welkeyever]

I've searched some similar cases according to my question, which ends up a "run a job to redetect" to solve. Seems like an internal operation from Github?
like these:

• https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/23565
• https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/21637

Am I asking this question in the wrong place? If there is a correct way to raise this kind of question, please let me know~ Thanks!

[queenofcorgis]

Thanks for raising this @welkeyever - I've reached out to some folks to see if I can find some answers 🔍 .

Hi

[mariadhari6]

hello

[oswoc]

Yeah @PhillipMike

first create a repo, on the name of repo add your name(username)
Then you will be created a file readme.md or if you do not create a file with that extension readme.md and that's it, you would have your card of details customizable :)

[oswoc]

I understand you bro, in the Readme.md is very customizable how for example, https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats In this repository there are several ideas on how to customize the Readme, add languages, details of various things, It's cool. I recommend it 👌🏻
