Sometimes that "quick" refactor takes longer than I was planning for. Then it's nice to commit changes to a temporary "dirty" feature branch just to have an off-laptop backup and change history. I use this method for storing a bunch of trash commits on a feature branch and then lifting them back over to master when I want to continue work / clean up.

# Check out the branch you want to start working from
git checkout master

# Check out the dirty "refactor" branch as staged changes
git checkout refactor -- .

# Reset will unstage the changes
git reset

Install Virtualbox && Vagrant for MacOSX

Vagrant uses Virtualbox to manage the virtual dependencies. You can directly download virtualbox and install or use homebrew for it.

$ brew cask install virtualbox

Now install Vagrant either from the website or use homebrew for installing it.

Question:
. How to run Ansible without specifying the inventory but the host directly?
. Run a playbook or command with arbitrary host not in the inventory hosts list?
. run ansible with arbitrary host/ip without inventory?

Answer:
Surprisingly, the trick is to append a ,
The host parameter preceding the , can be either a hostname or an IPv4/v6 address.

Spawning multiple ffmpeg processes with xargs:

On standard NVIDIA GPUs (Not the Quadros and Tesla lines), NVENC encodes are limited to two simultaneous sessions. The sample below illustrates how to pass a list of AVI files to ffmpeg and encode them to HEVC on two encode sessions:

$ find Videos/ -type f -name \*.avi -print | sed 's/.avi$//' |\
  xargs -n 1 -I@ -P 2 ffmpeg -i "@.avi" -c:a aac -c:v hevc_nvenc "@.mp4"

This will find all files with the ending .avi in the directory Videos/ and transcode them into HEVC/H265+AAC files with the ending .mp4. The noteworthy part here is the -P 2 to xargs, which starts up to two processes in parallel.

These are the steps required to replace a directory with a submodule in git. Note: Assumes that you are currently working on branch called 'develop'

1. Check out a new branch to make the changes on: git checkout -b creating-submodule
2. delete directory to be replaced rm -rf path/of/directory/to/be/replaced
3. git add . then git commit -m "removing local directory"
4. add the submodule: git submodule add "https://github.com/repoName" path/of/directory/to/be/replaced
5. git add . then git commit -m "adding submodule"
6. delete the submodule directory if you don't do this git will throw a hissy when you try to checkout out develop to merge the changes in
7. git checkout develop
8. pull the submodule back into the local repo: git submodule foreach git fetch --tags then git submodule update --init --recursive
