How to have local versions of tracked config files in git

This is a fairly common question, and there isn't a One True Answer.

These are the most common techniques:

If you can modify your application

#Transform web.config on build

Unload the project
Edit .csproj
Append figure 1 to the end of the file just before </Project>; v12.0 my change depending on your version of Visual Studio
Save .csproj and reload
Open configuration manager
Add a new Configuration Name: Base. Copy settings from: Release
Copy the contents of your web.config
Right click Web.Config > Add Config Transformation

[LINUX] Factorio Headless Server Guide

So, with credit to the Factorio wiki and cbednarski's helpful gist, I managed to eventually setup a Factorio headless server. Although, I thought the process could be nailed down/simplified to be a bit more 'tutorialised' and also to document how I got it all working for my future records.

The specific distro/version I'm using for this guide being Ubuntu Server 16.04.1 LTS. Although, that shouldn't matter, as long as your distro supports systemd (just for this guide, not a Factorio headless requirement, although most distros use it as standard now). The version of Factorio I shall be using is 0.14.20, although should work for any version of Factorio 0.14.12 and higher.

Just a note to newcomers: If there are any issues with the installation steps, people in the comments are doing a good job

	-- DESCRIPTION --

	If you accidentally commit a huge file, you have a problem. Sure, you can remove it from the working tree and commit,
	but the file is still reachable from your history and therefore causes every clone to be as huge as the commented
	binary file.
	Fixing this can be very ugly, time consuming and might not even work as you wish. Luckily, this script can protect
	you from committing such monsters in the first place.

	It looks through the staged files (the ones that are added with the "git add"-command) and checks for their file-size.
	If they are larger then the given size, the commit is aborted and you get a message telling you what file takes so

	using System.IO.Ports;

	namespace AsyncExtensions {
	public static class SerialPortExtensions
	{
	/// <summary>
	/// Read a line from the SerialPort asynchronously
	/// </summary>
	/// <param name="serialPort">The port to read data from</param>
	/// <returns>A line read from the input</returns>
