Whether you're trying to give back to the open source community or collaborating on your own projects, knowing how to properly fork and generate pull requests is essential. Unfortunately, it's quite easy to make mistakes or not know what you should do when you're initially learning the process. I know that I certainly had considerable initial trouble with it, and I found a lot of the information on GitHub and around the internet to be rather piecemeal and incomplete - part of the process described here, another there, common hangups in a different place, and so on.

In an attempt to coallate this information for myself and others, this short tutorial is what I've found to be fairly standard procedure for creating a fork, doing your work, issuing a pull request, and merging that pull request back into the original project.

Creating a Fork

Just head over to the GitHub page and click the "Fork" button. It's just that simple. Once you've done that, you can use your favorite git client to clone your repo or j

Add Git Branch Name to Terminal Prompt (Linux/Mac)

Open ~/.bash_profile in your favorite editor and add the following content to the bottom.

# Git branch in prompt.

parse_git_branch() {

Enable SSL in Apache (OSX)

The following will guide you through the process of enabling SSL on a Apache webserver

The instructions have been verified with OSX El Capitan (10.11.2) running Apache 2.4.16
The instructions assume you already have a basic Apache configuration enabled on OSX, if this is not the case feel free to consult Gist: "Enable Apache HTTP server (OSX)"

Apache SSL Configuration

Create a directory within /etc/apache2/ using Terminal.app: sudo mkdir /etc/apache2/ssl
Next, generate two host keys:

Keycloak Cluster Configuration (How to) - Legacy Wildfly Distribution!!!

This is a short and simple example on how to build a proper Keycloak cluster, using JDBC_PING as discovery protocol and an NGINX server as reverse proxy.

As this is for legacy Keycloak version (Wildfly based, up until version 17), you can find an example for more current and uptodate versions at this gist here: https://gist.github.com/dasniko/3a57913047af3ca1b6b0a83b294dc1a1
