 Group [Advent of Code](https://adventofcode.com/2022) repository for 2022. Private collection of code solutions from those invited to participate in our small community.
 
-## How to contribute
+# Branch Format
 
-To contribute to the repository, please create a branch with choice of name/identifier and push all changes to that branch. The master branch is locked.
-
-Organize your code however you please (categorization of day, language, part are up to you). Do not push compiled applications or input files. To help prevent this automatically, you can create a `.gitignore` file in the root of your branch with the following template:
-
-```
-*/**
-!*/*.{source_extension}
-
-```
-
-This file will ignore all files first and then whitelist files with your `source_extension` only. For example, c++ coders would replace `{source_extension}` with `cpp`.

-## Tips
-
-* [Join our leaderboard](https://adventofcode.com/2022/leaderboard/private) with the join code `1498937-6440e4da`
-
-* Modify the readme of your branch to include build and run instructions
-
-* Once the challenges from Advent of Code become more complicated, consider an explanation document (make sure this document isn't ignored by your `.gitignore` configuration)
