Automating the Contributor list

See original GitHub issue

Right now, we use a tool to manually update the CONTRIBUTORS.md file. This process is not automated, which means that every now and then, someone has to manually run it. It would be a lot better if we could automatically update the Contributors file at set time intervals, and if we could ping the people we add to the file, thanking them for their efforts. This could most likely be done most efficiently with a GitHub Probot App.

If anyone wants to help with this, comment here. Both me and @gr2m would be more than happy to advise and guide anyone who wants to take this on. 😃

For more on how this system works, see the original PR in https://github.com/nock/nock/pull/1163.

Thanks, I’ve started working on this. It doesn’t look like too much work, but unfortunately I don’t have much time so it will take a few days.
