Transforming Code into Beautiful, Idiomatic Python

Notes from Raymond Hettinger's talk at pycon US 2013 video, slides.

The code examples and direct quotes are all from Raymond's talk. I've reproduced them here for my own edification and the hopes that others will find them as handy as I have!

The Ultimate Git Alias Setup

If you use git on the command-line, you'll eventually find yourself wanting aliases for your most commonly-used commands. It's incredibly useful to be able to explore your repos with only a few keystrokes that eventually get hardcoded into muscle memory.

Some people don't add aliases because they don't want to have to adjust to not having them on a remote server. Personally, I find that having aliases doesn't mean I that forget the underlying commands, and aliases provide such a massive improvement to my workflow that it would be crazy not to have them.

The simplest way to add an alias for a specific git command is to use a standard bash alias.

# .bashrc

	set nocompatible
	filetype off

	set rtp+=~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim

	call vundle#begin()

	Plugin 'gmarik/Vundle.vim'

	Plugin 'bling/vim-airline'

	listen MyStats
	mode http
	bind 0.0.0.0:1000
	stats enable
	stats uri /

	# if authentication is wanted
	acl auth_ok http_auth(stats-auth)
	http-request auth unless auth_ok

	Create separate SSH key for your personal account and your company.
	Put these file in different location in your .ssh folder.


	Upload them to your github account and finally create a config file for your SSH

	Create a config file in ~/.ssh/config

	vim config:

	::Skip file with name .pdb, someFile.xml and .config$

	msdeploy.exe -verb:sync -source:contentPath=SourcePath -dest:DestPath -skip:objectName=filepath,absolutepath="^\.pdb$" -skip:objectName=filepath,absolutepath="^\someFile.xml$" -skip:objectName=filepath,absolutepath="^*\someotherfile.aspx$" -skip:objectName=filepath,absolutepath=".config$"
