TODO.it Requirements

TODO.it is a simple command line application designed to capture and manage TODO tasks from the command-line. Designed as a beginner ruby challenge.

Any thing marked in (( double parenthasis )) are examples or ideas for the challenger to pick.

The app must

Accept input from the command ((an input prompt or command-line arguments))
Display active tasks

Been thinking a lot about this feature. I've been fighting with it quite a bit for installing SxS packages

Some examples of packages that can be sensibly installed side-by-side:

Ruby
microsoft-build-tools
sqlserver-odbcdriver

Here are some of the issues:

No automated upgrade path for point releases. e.g. if I have Ruby 1.9 and Ruby 2.4 installed, I can only upgrade Ruby 2.4, even if there's an update to 1.9

Gerrit vs Github: for code review and codebase management

Sure, Github wins on the UI. Hands down. But, despite my initial annoyance with Gerrit when I first started using it almost a year ago, I am now a convert. Fully. Let me tell you why.

Note: This is an opinionated (on purpose) piece. I assume your preferences are like mine on certain ideas, such as:

Fast-forward submits to the target branch are better than allowing merge commits to the target branch. The reason I personally prefer this is that, even if a non-conflicting merge to the target branch is possible, the fact that the review/pull request is not up to date with the latest on the target branch means feature branch test suite runs in the CI pipeline reporting on the review/PR may not be accurate. Another minor point is that forced merge commits are annoying as fuck (opinion) and clutter up Git log histories unnecessarily and I prefer clean histories.
Atomic/related changes all in one commit is something worth striving for. Having your dev
