Github topics for Humdrum-based digital scores

[Craig Sapp]

Hello **HUGers,

As discussed at the humdrumR workshop last week, it would be useful for those of you with Humdrum-based digital scores on Github to add two keywords to your repositories so that it is easy to find them when searching by topic.

Here is an example repository:

https://github.com/craigsapp/mozart-piano-sonatas

On the top right of that page, you will see an "About" section:

If you are an owner/maintainer of the repository, you will see a gear icon to the right of the "About" text.   Click on this icon to edit the repository details:

In the Topics area, add keywords for the repository, and in particular add "humdrum" and "digital-scores" (as well as other keywords relevant to your repository as you like).   To add keywords (topics), click in the Topics box and type these two keywords, and they will be displayed in blue boxes.   Then click on Save changes. (Also note the Website entry in the same window, which would be useful to fill in if there is a website interface for the scores).

You can now do this search at the top of the page:

     topic:humdrum topic:digital-scores

Here is the search-results page:

https://github.com/search?q=topic%3Ahumdrum%20topic%3Adigital-scores&type=repositories

which currently lists 28 repositories containing Humdrum digital scores.

If you don't know how to use Github, but want to put your Humdrum scores onto it, I can walk you through the process (I might make a post related to this later).
