Git scraping: track changes over time by scraping to a Git repository (2020)
I've been promoting this idea for a few years now, and I've seen an increasing number of people put it into action.<p>A fun way to track how people are using this is with the git-scraping topic on GitHub:<p><a href="https://github.com/topics/git-scraping?o=desc&s=updated">https://github.com/topics/git-scraping?o=desc&s=updated</a><p>That page orders repos tagged git-scraping by most-recently-updated, which shows which scrapers have run most recently.<p>As I write this, just in the last minute repos that updated include:<p>queensland-traffic-conditions: <a href="https://github.com/drzax/queensland-traffic-conditions">https://github.com/drzax/queensland-traffic-conditions</a><p>bbcrss: <a href="https://github.com/jasoncartwright/bbcrss">https://github.com/jasoncartwright/bbcrss</a><p>metrobus-timetrack-history: <a href="https://github.com/jackharrhy/metrobus-timetrack-history">https://github.com/jackharrhy/metrobus-timetrack-history</a><p>bchydro-outages: <a href="https://github.com/outages/bchydro-outages">https://github.com/outages/bchydro-outages</a>
