I built greens because most of my day-job work is in private org repos, so my public GitHub graph looked inactive.

The tool runs locally, scans repos you choose in read-only mode, extracts commit timestamps for your author email, and creates empty commits with those timestamps in a public mirror repo. No source code, diffs, or filenames are copied.

If `gh` is configured, it can also mirror PR/review/issue activity. It's a bash CLI, installable via Homebrew (`brew install yuvrajangadsingh/greens/greens`).

I know some people view this as graph-gaming, fair point. My intent is not to imply public OSS output, only to make private work volume visible. Also worth noting: check your company policy before using it.

Feedback welcome, especially on edge cases or failure modes.
