Update on my GitHub Repos

After GitHub changed to using SSH to push commits to repositories a couple of years ago, I tried to get that all set up and, for the life of me, I couldn’t get it to work. I was apparently missing something, so I gave up on it. About a year ago, I set up a local Gitea server on my home network and that’s been working well for me. The biggest disadvantage of that was there was no access to from outside my network. Everything on my Gitea server is primarily for my own use, but I do have some scripts and projects I might want to share. In the meantime, everything I had on GitHub was sitting stagnant and well out of date.

A few days ago, I decided to take another look at my GitHub presense. I successfully set up my SSH public key on GitHub, and after searching online, I found a couple of git commands that got my old repositories talking to GitHub again via SSH. Then I set forth to update the repositories. I archived the homebankarchive and yt-dl-utilities repos since they’re probably not very useful. I’ll probably remove them complete soon. The FnLoC and FnLoC-Win repositories are still current despite not having done any work on them in a few years. There are some features and improvements I’d like to make, but I don’t know how to implement them. My knowledge of C programming has diminished over the years.

Then I began updating the bashscripts repository by importing up-to-date versions of the scripts from my Gitea repo and pushing them up to GitHub. I also removed some scripts that were of dubious interest. In the last few days I’ve been going through my scripts n the Gitea server, and exporting some of them that others might find useful. I’ve been adding new scripts to the repo a couple at a time and updating them as needed.

For those who are interested, here’s my GitHub.
