Git has several hooks that you can configure. Personally use two: one to prevent me from accidentally --force pushing to master and this one to keep me from checking in binding.prys:

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

# Checks staged files for disallowed additions

class PreCommitHandler

 def handle

Hello gist!

In working on her command line todo manager, Katie asked a good question about being able to use a NoMethodError. NoMethodError specifically applies to trying to call methods on an object and there isn't (an obvious) one here, but I wanted to suggest an idea. Notice that you probably have a big long where statement where each case is just "do the thing that the user typed in with whatever arguments they supplied". Here's one potential way to simplify that:

class Dispatcher
  def add
    ...
  end
  def list
    ...
 end

I've been reading Make It Stick (A+ would recommend), and trying to do more information-retrieval practice (as a good way to make information stick). This is ungraded, but should be pretty quick.

Find the sum of these numbers. HipChat me the sum -
