Is there a way other than / simpler than git to submit a new style?

I am sorry if this has been asked/discussed before (I couldn't find a solution in the forum):
As I stated above:
Is there a way other than / simpler than git to submit a new style?
All the github stuff seems to be way beyond my cognitive skills.
  • You can paste the code into http://gist.github.com, save as a public gist and post the URL back here.
  • note that this is mentioned as option "C" here:
    https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md

    if somehow that poses a major problem, we'll also accept CSL style uploaded elsewhere, but using a gist is much much convenient.
  • Thanks Gracile and adamsmith.
    I thought that option C was a much ore complicated issue:
    This is the link:
    git://gist.github.com/4033920.git

    It is a Journal style for:
    Cuadernos de Filología Clásica. Estudios Griegos e Indoeuropeos. Universidad Complutense de Madrid. ISSN 1131-9070. http://revistas.ucm.es/index.php/CFCG

    Thanks for your support.

    Thank you!
    This looks like it's based on another style, correct? If so that should be mentioned (with a link and rel="template"), in accordance with the attribution requirement of the CC license.

    Also note that we ask the "rights" field to look like this:
    <rights license="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/">This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 License</rights>

    Does this journal publish only in Spanish or in different languages? If the former, the style should include a default-locale.

    Otherwise this looks good.
  • adamsmith:
    I don't know how to quote in this forum, so:

    1. Concerning the rights field, the corresponding requirement in the Style Requirements page is truncated:
    https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/wiki/Style-Requirements

    2. The journal publishes papers in several languages.

    I have corrected the rest.
    New gist:

  • The style is up. It will show up on the repository within 30mins. It may take up to a day for the preview to work.
    If you want to update the style in the future, please always start with the version on the repository, since we usually touch up some formatting etc.

    Thanks for contributing!

    use <blockquote> and </blockquote>

    thank you, fixed by Rintze right after you posted this.
