Creating a clean gh-pages branch

This is the sequence of steps to follow to create a root gh-pages branch. It is based on a question at [SO]

cd /path/to/repo-name
git symbolic-ref HEAD refs/heads/gh-pages
rm .git/index
git clean -fdx
echo "My GitHub Page" &gt; index.html

Each of these commands will run an ad hoc http static server in your current (or specified) directory, available at http://localhost:8000. Use this power wisely.

Better local require() paths for Node.js

Problem

When the directory structure of your Node.js application (not library!) has some depth, you end up with a lot of annoying relative paths in your require calls like:

const Article = require('../../../../app/models/article');

Those suck for maintenance and they're ugly.

	if (typeof uneval != "function") {
	uneval = function (o) {
	switch (typeof o) {
	case "undefined" : return "(void 0)";
	case "boolean" : return String(o);
	case "number" : return String(o);
	case "string" : return '"' + o.replace(/[^a-z]/gi, function (_) { return '\\u' + (0x10000 + _.charCodeAt(0)).toString(16).slice(1) }) + '"';
	case "function" : return "(" + o.toString() + ")";
	case "object" :
	if (o == null) return "null";
