# GitHub Explore

This repository houses all of the community-curated content for GitHub Topics and Collections.

[Topics](https://help.github.com/articles/about-topics/) help you explore repositories in a particular subject area, learn more about that subject, and find projects to contribute to.

[Collections](https://github.com/collections) help you discover hand-picked repositories, developers, organizations, videos, and articles that share a common theme.

If you want to suggest edits to an existing Topic page or Collection, or curate a new one, read our [contributing guide](CONTRIBUTING.md) to get started.

## Running tests

There are some lint tests in place to ensure each Topic is formatted in the way we expect. GitHub
Actions will run the tests automatically. If you want to run the tests yourself locally, you will
need Ruby and Bundler installed.

You can run the tests using:

```bash
bundle install
bundle exec rubocop
```

The changes are adding a hyphen character at the beginning of each line, which will corrupt the README formatting. Lines that should be blank for proper Markdown spacing are now starting with a hyphen, which will be rendered as unordered list items in Markdown. This is the opposite of removing whitespace - it's adding unwanted characters.

This line breaks the word "for complete" into "for -complete" with an incorrect hyphen and line break. The text should read "for complete details" as a continuous phrase. This change corrupts the sentence and will render incorrectly.
