Image hosting on GitHub

take-shots

gist take-shots:

• Adds one or more images to git-versioned repository,
• Commits and pushes,
• Repeats the URLs to use (percent-encoding characters thanks to Python urllib.quote),
• Returns to the original directory

make-shots

make-shots just copies the file(s) into the directory (make a commit when you're ready).

See also: getgot, which parses the git status --porcelain output to produce an automated summary message for a git commit. Useful here if you add multiple shots separately with make-shots then want to move everything to origin master.
