Git hook to disallow non-fastforward updates (also disallows merges into feature branches in order to keep them cleanly rebaseable)
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
# This update hook enforces the following policies
# 1) release and master branches are fast-forward only
# 2) feature branches cannot contain merges
$refname = ARGV[0]
$oldrev = ARGV[1]
$newrev = ARGV[2]

Run Postgres Specs in Ramdisk
  • This creates a 560mb ramdisk. Adjust the size accordingly. I think the number at the end of the command is the number of disk blocks. They are 2kb in size for me.
  • Restarting postgres is not necessary; you can create the ramdisk and tablespace while postgres is running.
  • You will lose all data in the ramdisk tablespace when you shut your machine down

  $ diskutil erasevolume HFS+ "postgres_ramdisk" `hdiutil attach -nomount ram://1165430`
  Started erase on disk1
  Unmounting disk
  Erasing
 Initialized /dev/rdisk1 as a 569 MB HFS Plus volume

Vi on the command line
In your ~/.inputrc (make one if you don't have one):
set editing-mode vi
In your ~/.bashrc (or whatever)
set -o vi
Launch a new command prompt, you should have vi keybindings. If you get sick of it, set -o emacs will fix it.

Hi all,
This Saturday 22nd Jan from 1pm until whenever you are invited to join me for some informal drinks and/or food at The Welcome Hotel, 91 Evans Street, Balmain.
I have reserved a couple of tables in the beer garden at the back. It would be great to catch up with everyone before Kel and I embark on our big trip - we're going to be out of the country for about a year... exciting!
Obligatory Google Maps link:

# See what a 'refactored' page looked like before you fucked it up
In your Rails/Sinatra/Whatever app when running in your development environment, expose a 'commit' parameter.
If that parameter is present, have your app serve the view as it was at that commit. E.G. http://localhost:3000/session/new&_commit=HEAD^.
You'll need to intercept whatever you need to in order to determine the file to render (dependent on framework), but ultimately you just need a call to Git like this to make it work:
`git show #{params['_commit']}:#{path_to_view} > #{tmp_file}`
