Adventures in Python Core Dumping

Adventures in Python Core Dumping

After watching Bryan Cantrill's presentation on [Running Aground: Debugging Docker in Production][aground] I got all excited (and strangely nostalgic) about the possibility of core-dumping server-side Python apps whenever they go awry. This would theoretically allow me to fully inspect the state of the program at the point it exploded, rather than relying solely on the information of a stack trace.

A quick reference for Vim's built-in netrw file selector.
Map Action
<F1> Causes Netrw to issue help
<cr> Netrw will enter the directory or read the file
<del> Netrw will attempt to remove the file/directory
- Makes Netrw go up one directory
a Toggles between normal display, hiding (suppress display of files matching g:netrw_list_hide) showing (display only files which match g:netrw_list_hide)
c Make browsing directory the current directory
C Setting the editing window

Rsync over SSH - (40MB/s over 1GB NICs)

The fastest remote directory rsync over ssh archival I can muster (40MB/s over 1gb NICs)

This creates an archive that does the following:

rsync (Everyone seems to like -z, but it is much slower for me)

  • a: archive mode - rescursive, preserves owner, preserves permissions, preserves modification times, preserves group, copies symlinks as symlinks, preserves device files.
  • H: preserves hard-links
  • A: preserves ACLs

##git mergetool

In the middle file (future merged file), you can navigate between conflicts with ]c and [c.

Choose which version you want to keep with :diffget //2 or :diffget //3 (the //2 and //3 are unique identifiers for the target/master copy and the merge/branch copy file names).

:diffupdate (to remove leftover spacing issues)

:only (once you’re done reviewing all conflicts, this shows only the middle/merged file)

This is a simple script for getting a list of dangling commits in a git repository and the description of the log entry to identify it. This is helpful in finding lost commits in a git repository.
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
# Make sure we're at the root of a git repository.
if ! File.directory? ".git"
puts "please run this from the root of a git repository"
exit 1
end
# Get a list of dangling commits from fsck.
fsck = `git fsck --lost-found 2>&1 | grep "dangling commit"`
