Commit Everyday: checkin

A while ago I started experimenting with comminting everyday. The rules were simple:

I need to make a commit everyday (not just limited to code, but blog post or writing docs would qualify as well)

The change must be open source and on Github

The following is a before and after of my github public contribution graph (about 1.5 month of data):

##Before - 2014 Dec 17 Github Public Contribution 20141217

##After - 2015 Jan 31 Github Public Contribution 20150131

##Findings

So far I’ve been good about following the rules and saw a few pattern emerge.

  1. I finally made a few contributions to public repos that other folks started. I still have a long way to go when contributing more on pen source, but at least I have a start.
  2. I started this blog (and have been regular at documenting my findings)
  3. Learned a few new technologies that I’ve been wanted to learn for a while
  4. More of my random projects have a live presence now :)

I still don’t know what I want by continuing this habit, but I like it! So, I’ll continue for now .. and follow up with another checkin/post :)

regards
