  2. Create a new private github repo, with a name similar to sync-contributions-calendar-fake-commits. You have to initialize it with something, so select the option to create a readme file.
  3. Create a new pair of private and public keys. You can do it on the terminal, or just use a website like https://8gwifi.org/sshfunctions.jsp. A website is NOT recommended for any important stuff, but this is not important.
  4. On sync-contributions-calendar-fake-commits, go to Settings -> Deploy key tab. and add a new Deploy key with write access with the public key you have generated
  5. On sync-contributions-calendar (your fork) configure the secrets. Go to Settings -> Secrets.
    1. GITLAB_USERNAME: Your GitLab username
    2. GIT_USERNAME: Your GitHub username
    3. GIT_EMAIL: Your GitHub email
    4. FAKE_COMMITS_REPO_URL: The git url for your sync-contributions-calendar-fake-commits repo. For example: git@github.com:NiciusB/sync-contributions-calendar-fake-commits.git
    5. FAKE_COMMITS_REPO_DEPLOY_KEY_PUBLIC: The public key you generated on step 3
    6. FAKE_COMMITS_REPO_DEPLOY_KEY_PRIVATE: The private key you generated on step 3
  6. You should be good to go! The github action should execute every hour, and generate activity as needed to replicate your GitLab activity calendar.
