Installing on Linode

fabiomaggio

1. Clone project

2. Checkout all branches that contain the files that should be moved

3. Delete the remote

4. Run the filter-branch command:

   git filter-branch --tree-filter 'mkdir -p /path/to/tmp; mv * /path/to/tmp; mkdir subdir; mv /path/to/tmp/* subdir/' --tag-name-filter cat --prune-empty -- --all

   • All files are first copied to a temporary dir and move from there to the new destination

• Existing tags are updated

Turning Off Github Issues

My friend Michael Jackson turned off github issues on one of his smaller projects. It got me thinking...

Maintainers getting burned out is a problem. Not just for the users of a project but the mental health of the maintainer. It's a big deal for both parties. Consumers want great tools, maintainers want to create them, but maintainers don't want to be L1 tech support, that's why they

General notes

• nix-channel and ~/.nix-defexpr are gone. We'll use $NIX_PATH (or user environment specific overrides configured via nix set-path) to look up packages. Since $NIX_PATH supports URLs nowadays, this removes the need for channels: you can just set $NIX_PATH to e.g. https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-15.09/nixexprs.tar.xz and stay up to date automatically.

• By default, packages are selected by attribute name, rather than the name attribute. Thus nix install hello is basically equivalent to nix-env -iA hello. The attribute name is recorded in the user environment manifest and used in upgrades. Thus (at least by default) hello won't be upgraded to helloVariant.

  @vcunat suggested making this an arbitrary Nix expression rather than an attrpath, e.g. firefox.override { enableFoo = true; }. However, such an expression would not have a key in the user environment, unlike an attrpath. Better to require an explicit flag for this.

TBD: How to deal with search path clashes.

"""
This script uses Github's API V3 with Basic Authentication to export issues from
a repository. The script saves a json file with all of the information from the
API for issues, comments, and events (on the issues), downloads all of the
images attached to issues, and generates a markdown file that can be rendered
into a basic HTML page crudely mimicking Github's issue page. If the gfm module
is available, the script will go ahead and render it itself.

In the end, you'll be left with a folder containing a raw .json file (which you
can use to extract information for your needs, or to import it somewhere else),
