1. Clone your fork:

git clone [email protected]:YOUR-USERNAME/YOUR-FORKED-REPO.git

2. Add remote from original repository in your forked repository:

cd into/cloned/fork-repo
git remote add upstream git://github.com/ORIGINAL-DEV-USERNAME/REPO-YOU-FORKED-FROM.git
git fetch upstream

The only connection available to me right now is a limited 3g connection, which I try not to squander over huge images/media on the internet. My browser is chromium, on linux, and I tend to use Opera 11 (turbo mode) frequently as well.

Just as an experiment, I disabled images & javascript from my browser a few weeks back. What all have I got?

Faster pages (I use http://google.com/xhtml occasionally to search)
Broken websites (http://about.me/n3m0 which don't run on disabling javascript at all)
Broken navigation (http://parse.com due to images being used as links. And since chrome does not display <alt> tags properly, it breaks)
Reduced Functionality (Gmail refuses to load chat if images are disabled)

Other than the normal chrome content blocking, I also went ahead and installed ghostery addon. It blocks all advertising, and social media junk (no more sharing). However, it is only useful on the occasional sites I have enabled javascript on.

Each of these commands will run an ad hoc http static server in your current (or specified) directory, available at http://localhost:8000. Use this power wisely.

Ubuntu/Debian Offline Repository Creation Gist

When I googled how to create my own offline repository of packages for use in an offline Ubuntu/Debian machine, the results were disheartening and the steps to be taken scattered all over the place.

The files within this gist will allow you to:

Download specific apt-get packages... with dependencies included!
Create a Packages.gz file so that you can add the repository folder you create to the target machine's /etc/apt/sources.list file.

How to generate and apply patches with git?

It sometimes happen you need change code on a machine from which you cannot push to the repo. You’re ready to copy/paste what diff outputs to your local working copy.

You think there must be a better way to proceed and you’re right. It’s a simple 2 steps process:

1. Generate the patch:

git diff &gt; some-changes.patch

	## Configure eth0
	#
	# vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

	DEVICE="eth0"
	NM_CONTROLLED="yes"
	ONBOOT=yes
	HWADDR=A4:BA:DB:37:F1:04
	TYPE=Ethernet
	BOOTPROTO=static

	package example_test

	import (
	"crypto/aes"
	"crypto/cipher"
	"hex"
	"io"
	)

	// AES-GCM should be used because the operation is an authenticated encryption

	package main

	import (
	"database/sql"
	"fmt"
	"log"
	"math/rand"
	"sync"
	"time"
