This repo attempts to standardize the structure of the Python-based project's repositories using modern Python packaging and configuration techniques. Using this blog post as inspiration, this repository serves as the base for all new Python projects and is mergeable in existing repositories as well.

git init my-new-repo
cd my-new-repo
git pull [email protected]:nexB/skeleton

# Create the new repo on GitHub, then update your remote
git remote set-url origin [email protected]:nexB/your-new-repo.git

From here, you can make the appropriate changes to the files for your specific project.

cd my-existing-project
git remote add skeleton [email protected]:nexB/skeleton
git fetch skeleton
git merge skeleton/main --allow-unrelated-histories

This is also the workflow to use when updating the skeleton files in any given repository.

More usage instructions can be found in docs/skeleton-usage.rst.
