LaTeX Project Skeleton

GitHub Actions

Package skeleton for a LaTeX project.

Description

Bootstrap a new LaTeX project in in five minutes or less.

Features

Bootstrapping a new project

  1. Create an empty (non-initialized) repository on GitHub.
  2. Clone the main branch of this repository with 
    $ git clone --single-branch git@github.com:makenew/latex-project.git <new-latex-project>
$ cd <new-latex-project>
    Optionally, reset to the latest version with 
    $ git reset --hard <version-tag>
  3. Run 
    $ ./makenew.sh
    This will replace the boilerplate, delete itself, remove the git remote, remove upstream tags, and stage changes for commit.
  4. Create the required GitHub repository secrets.
  5. Review, commit, and push the changes to GitHub with 
    $ git diff --cached
$ git commit -m "Replace makenew boilerplate"
$ git remote add origin git@github.com:<user>/<new-latex-project>.git
$ git push -u origin main
  6. Ensure the GitHub action passes, then publish the initial version of the package with 
    $ npm install
$ npm ver patch

Updating from this skeleton

If you want to pull in future updates from this skeleton, you can fetch and merge in changes from this repository.

Add this as a new remote with

$ git remote add upstream git@github.com:makenew/latex-project.git

You can then fetch and merge changes with

$ git fetch --no-tags upstream
$ git merge upstream/main
