Set up a new repository for a Stata project #3

Description

@luizaandrade
  • Go to the landing page for this repository and click on "Use this template"
  • Adapt the folder structure to one that fits your project. This template currently only contains four subfolders. Each of them includes a README file with a short description of what it should contain and suggestions for how to organize it. Try to create all the necessary subfolders as you first set up the repository. This will help you think through important aspects of your project. When creating a placeholder folder that will not have any content at first, make sure to include a README.md file inside it so GitHub does not ignore it.
  • Delete the R setup files in the root folder
    • main.R
    • project.Rproj
    • renv
    • renv.lock
  • Edit the main script.
    • Enter the file paths for Box and GitHub in the computer you are using
    • If you made changes to the suggested folder structure, edit those as well
  • Edit the contribution guidelines in `CONTRIBUTING.md to match your preferred folder structure, naming conventions, and workflow.
  • Edit the main README in the repository's root directory. The file contains instructions on how to modify it.
  • Set up rules for main branch protection. The suggested rule is to require a pull request with at least one approval.
