Last time around, I mentioned using \verb|\input{<filename>}| to keep your \LaTeX{} GUI happy. But I've also found that using \verb|\include{<filename>}| keeps \textit{me} happy. Creating this zine means I end up with a very long file (the file for issue \#5 was 1005 lines long!) making it time consuming to constanty scroll through the file to get to the last part I was editing. (It's not terrible in and of itself, but repeatedly having to do it impacts my overall efficiency.)
For this issue, I decided to write up each chapter as a separate file, and then just \texttt{include} that file into my main document. This makes it much easier to manage, and I do feel more efficient. But because I'm using a GUI (Texmaker) I do have to remember to switch back to my main file when I compile the document. Overall, that's a trade-off I can live with.

Overall, that's a trade-off I can live with. As a bonus, I can comment out chapters I am not concerned about when compiling. This saves both printer paper (since I tend to edit on paper—I'm very old-school in that way) and my adult-onset-attention-deficit-disordered brain.)

It looks like this is a thing now, and a single repo just won't work. I'm just over 300 commits in that repo, which doesn't really reveal much about the state of each issue. So, going forward, I'm going to be making commits to a different project on my git repo at \kref{https://git.kjodle.net/the-codex-zine}{https://git.kjodle.net/the-codex-\\zine}. That way, each issue can have its own repository and will eventually come to a logical end, instead of being never ending.
I will, however, maintain the wiki at \kref{https://git.kjodle.net/kjodle/the-codex/wiki}{https://git.kjodle.net/kjodle/the\\-codex/wiki}.
