⚠️ Warning: Git contributions do not necessarily reflect your talent or skill level. 
The purpose of this script is educational, emphasizing the importance of meaningful contributions over quantity.

Script for generating random commits in a Git repository within a specified date range.

Usage:
1. Ensure you have Git installed on your system.
2. Make sure you have initiated the git repo.
3. Configure [Date] and [Time] variables according to your needs.
4. Run this script and sync the changes with GitHub.

👉 Note: This script uses subprocess to execute Git commands. Make sure to run it in a 
directory where you have initialized a Git repository.
