This Month in Nix Docs

This is a script and template for compiling "This Month in Nix Docs". The process is semi-automated. The script queries a collection of Nix repositories, looking for merged PRs with documentation-related labels, RFCs (you have to look through these manually), and tracking issues in this repository.

A new post is created via:

$ ./make-post.sh <from YYYY-MM-DD> <to YYYY-MM-DD> > new-post.md

After this invocation a template post (new-post.md) will be filled out with the GitHub query results formatted as markdown at the end of the file.

There is some post-processing requried:

• Fill in the number and year/month at the top of the post.
• Manually check the RFCs for relevance
• Remove the "Tracking Issues" section, it's there for your convenience while writing.
