gist-audit-maker v0.0.6

Gist Audit Maker

In keeping track of commits that need auditing for backport in Node.js, the current best approach is to maintain and update a gist with the commits.

This package allows for automatic updating of this gist.

To Use

Set the following environment variables, as these are needed to authenticate @octokit/rest for gist fetching and updating

export USERNAME=<your github username>
export PASSWORD=<your github password>

This tool will look for a file named according to the following format: audit-v[VERSION]-[SEMVER].md, where version is a Node version such as audit-v10-patch.md or audit-v11-minor.md. If a gist with this name pattern doesn't exist, this tool will create it for you and then update it on future runs.

Install gist-audit-maker globally:

$ npm i -g gist-audit-maker

This tool must be run from your local clone of the core nodejs/node repository. It takes three arguments:

1. branch - the target branch for auditing
2. semver - whether you would like to see either semver-minor or semver-patch commits (possible values are minor or patch)
3. fork - whether or not the repo in which this is being run is a fork (defaults to false)

Examples:

$ cd /path/to/node
$ gist-audit-maker --branch=v10.x --semver=patch --fork=true

$ cd /path/to/node
$ gist-audit-maker --branch=v11.x --semver=minor

You could also run it with npx, like so:

$ cd /path/to/node
$ npx gist-audit-maker --branch=v10.x --semver=minor --fork=false
