Ideas for improvements to `git log --graph`

I will maybe someday get around to dusting off my C and making these changes myself unless someone else does it first.

Make the graph for `--topo-order` less wiggly

Imagine a long-running development branch periodically merges from master. The git log --graph --all --topo-order is not as simple as it could be, as of git version 1.7.10.4.

It doesn't seem like a big deal in this example, but when you're trying to follow the history trails in ASCII and you've got several different branches displayed at once, it gets difficult quickly.

Let's fix that! (yeah!)

Exporting (iCloud) Keychain and Safari credentials to a CSV file

Update (October 2021)

Exporting password + one-time code data from iCloud Keychain is now officially supported in macOS Monterey and Safari 15 (for Monterey, Big Sur, and Catalina). You can access it in the Password Manager’s “gear” icon (System Preferences > Passwords on Monterey, and Safari > Passwords everywhere else), or via the File > Export > Passwords... menu item). You shouldn't need to hack up your own exporter anymore.

Original, Obsolete Content (2014)

After my dad died, I wanted to be able to have access any of his online accounts going forward. My dad was a Safari user and used iCloud Keychain to sync his credentials across his devices. I don’t want to have to keep an OS X user account around just to access his accounts, so I wanted to export his credentials to a portable file.

Close Android File Transfer
Open Activity Monitor and kill “Android File Transfer Agent”
Go to where you installed “Android File Transfer.app” (I have it under /Applications)
Ctrl+click –> “Show package contents”
Go to Contents/Resources
Rename “Android File Transfer Agent” to e.g. “Android File Transfer Agent_DISABLED”
Then go to “/Users/username/Library/Application Support/Google/Android File Transfer” and again rename the Agent app.

There is an official PR (#2027) for mouse functionality. You should use that rather than what is described below.

	After automatically updating Postgres to 10.0 via Homebrew, the pg_ctl start command didn't work.
	The error was "The data directory was initialized by PostgreSQL version 9.6, which is not compatible with this version 10.0."

	Database files have to be updated before starting the server, here are the steps that had to be followed:

	# need to have both 9.6.x and latest 10.0 installed, and keep 10.0 as default
	brew unlink postgresql
	brew install [email protected]
	brew unlink [email protected]
	brew link postgresql
