Provide novel tooling for regulatory needs

[apeltzer]

Description of feature

We are currently a group of people working on #regulatory topics and have several needs that we consider to be of value for the wider community. This includes tooling that can create a snapshot / nf-core regulatory report for a certain pipeline that contains information that should be accessible online but needs to be snapshotted:

• Number of users of that pipeline
• Number of contributors
• How many releases per year? How many releases within the last 6 months?
• How many minor/major releases this year?
• Link to versioned documentation / user documentation
• Github stars, clones per time units
• Review policies set accordingly for branches
• Changelog of pipeline
• Utilized containers + software versions (?)
• pipeline version

(none of this intends to be complete)

Most of this can be done relatively easily, but we think it would be great if e.g. something like:

nf-core pipelines regulatory

exists and then generates already the information snapshot that we will always need, almost independent of the standard we try to tackle.
