@durack1 this script works (this PR was auto-generated with it https://github.com/PCMDI/input4MIPs_CVs/pull/112). The things I don't know about are:

  1. how to automate the git operations on nimbus in a secure way. I assume we'd need to clone the repo as root or something so that only the cronjob could update it.
  2. how to store the GitHub API key securely on the server. Again, I assumed we'd have to make it only readable by root or something for actual security

In the meantime, we can obviously just run this script and make PRs by hand and it's fine.

The easiest thing would be that I pull that onto the same machine (not nimbus) that is running the cronjob

That'd work if you're happy with the security
