Description
Potentially of interest to the NRSG: Github now supports adding a CITATION.cff file to one’s repos, to provide a suggested citation for open-source code.

I have been open-sourcing my JPL-developed code as much as possible - it’s not a painful process (indeed, much less painful than sharing code with individual academic collaborators), and it encourages others to build upon our work.
