Hi there! This repository holds all of my default community health files. These files govern all repositories that belong to my personal GitHub account. Exceptions are made for individual repos on a per-file1 basis.
Aside from the two caveats mentioned below, the contents of this repo are licensed under CC0 and are therefore in the public domain. Feel free to use and/or adapt any of my files for your own projects if you find them helpful! 💜

For the most part, the files in this repository are wholly covered by the Creative Commons Zero v1.0 Universal license. The only exceptions are as follows:
-
code_of_conduct.md
is an abridged adaptation of the Contributor Covenant, which is released under CC-BY-4.0. -
developer_certificate.md
contains a copy of the Developer Certificate of Origin, which states that it may be copied and distributed, as long as its text isn't altered. This restriction only applies to the DCO document itself. The other parts of the file were written by me (@nuztalgia) and are licensed under CC0, like the rest of this repo.
Footnotes
-
If
example-repo
has a file with the same name as one of the files included here, then the file inexample-repo
takes precedence for that repository only. There's no need to manually cross-check file names, though - the appropriate guidelines for each repo should automatically be surfaced in GitHub's UI. ↩ -
With the exception of
LICENSE
andREADME.md
(arguably the most important files in a repo), I prefer lowercased file names - see sindresorhus/ama#197. Unfortunately, at the time of writing, GitHub does not seem to support a lowercased name for theISSUE_TEMPLATE
directory. ↩ -
The Developer Certificate of Origin isn't one of GitHub's natively-supported community health files. Nevertheless, it lives in this repository because it serves a similar purpose, and because it's referenced on more than one occassion by the other files in its directory. ↩
