Git Rev News Sources

Sources

Some ideas on where we can go to gather Git Rev News material.

Mailing lists

Blogs (the RSS-feeds can be aggregated into one shared resource)

Forums/news

Process

For every upcoming edition, do the following:

  • Create a new edition-[number].md file in some draft directory.
  • Post a mail/thread to the Git dev list asking if there's anything anyone wants included in the upcoming edition.
  • Post an issue in this GitHub repository asking for comments/contributions - anyone can comment on this, or send pull- requests for editing the edition.md file.
  • When the time comes to release the edition, move the edition.md file into some designated publishing directory, so it appears in the feed on git.github.io/rev_news/.
  • Announce the edition to the Git mailing list plus any social media channels you prefer.
  • Send the newsletter email (manual process using Mailchimp) - basically just copying the edition into MailChimp for publishing. Everyone from the editor team should have account access.

Links can be handily collected using a browser extension like diigo, but note that popular links may be duplicated by other contributors.

When adding links, this is a great tool: chitsaou/copy-as-markdown
