Should resolve #219
Adds Actions workflow file using
github-repo-stats
Action to record GitHub repository statistics in to a branchgithub-repo-stats
on a daily schedule.Requires creating a new access token with permissions to push commits and access repository statistics on this repository. The tutorial for action recommends using a classic personal access token with no expiry, however if possible would be good to avoid using such a token as it will provide (write / admin) access to all repositories under an account. Ideally we should instead use a fine-grained personal acccess token with access to just this repository and with only relevant needed permissions set. This will need to be set up by someone with admin permissions on
astroinformatics
organization. Once the token is created it will need to be added as a new repository secret with nameGHRS_GITHUB_API_TOKEN
