List the current installed Java versions

$ /usr/libexec/java_home -V

Install the version desired

Apple provides their own version of 6 (Java for OS X 2015-001)

Install ImageMagick for image conversion:

brew install imagemagick

Install tesseract for OCR:

brew install tesseract --all-languages

Or install without --all-languages and install them manually as needed.

Step 0:

Get Homebrew installed on your mac if you don't already have it

Step 1:

Install highlight. "brew install highlight". (This brings down Lua and Boost as well)

Step 2:

Sometimes, we have to access git repositories over SSL and the server only provides a self-signed certificate 🙈. Although there are ways to increase the trust level for the self-signed certificate (https://confluence.atlassian.com/fishkb/unable-to-clone-git-repository-due-to-self-signed-certificate-376838977.html, https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucketserverkb/resolving-ssl-self-signed-certificate-errors-806029899.html), my recommendation is to just ignore SSL verification alltogether.

Prepend GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY=true before every git command run to skip SSL verification. This is particularly useful if you haven't checked out the repository yet.

Run git config http.sslVerify false to disable SSL verification if you're working with a checked out repository already.

MacOS High Sierra Migration Issues

Apache

mod_fastcgi has not been migrated to core alongside the httpd* packages (https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-php/pull/4500, Homebrew/homebrew-core#17726, Homebrew/homebrew-core#18732)
use mod_proxy_fcgi instead: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_proxy_fcgi.html

Sometimes you need to keep two upstreams in sync with eachother. For example, you might need to both push to your testing environment and your GitHub repo at the same time. In order to do this simultaneously in one git command, here's a little trick to add multiple push URLs to a single remote.

Once you have a remote set up for one of your upstreams, run these commands with:

git remote set-url --add --push [remote] [original repo URL]
git remote set-url --add --push [remote] [second repo URL]

Once set up, git remote -v should show two (push) URLs and one (fetch) URL. Something like this:

	#!/usr/bin/env perl

	# Simple LWP browser for testing
	$ENV{'PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME'} = 0;

	use LWP::UserAgent;
	$ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
	$ua->agent("$0/0.1 " . $ua->agent);
	# $ua->agent("Mozilla/8.0") # pretend we are very capable browser
