GitHubbing for Open Research
GitHub repositories serve as vital platforms in today’s computational research, allowing scientists to store and share their project code. Although these repositories weren't specifically designed for data storage and preservation, their collaborative features and version control capabilities significantly aid project workflows. To boost their long-term value, we recommend the following best practices.
