5 entertaining things you can find with the GitHub Search API

Let's have some command-line fun with curl, [jq][1], and the [new GitHub Search API][2].

Today we're looking for:

The hottest repositories created in the last week.
The oldest user accounts with zero followers. (So sad.)
Issue trends by language.
Clojure projects defying convention.

How to set up stress-free SSL on an OS X development machine

One of the best ways to reduce complexity (read: stress) in web development is to minimize the differences between your development and production environments. After being frustrated by attempts to unify the approach to SSL on my local machine and in production, I searched for a workflow that would make the protocol invisible to me between all environments.

Most workflows make the following compromises:

Use HTTPS in production but HTTP locally. This is annoying because it makes the environments inconsistent, and the protocol choices leak up into the stack. For example, your web application needs to understand the underlying protocol when using the secure flag for cookies. If you don't get this right, your HTTP development server won't be able to read the cookies it writes, or worse, your HTTPS production server could pass sensitive cookies over an insecure connection.
Use production SSL certificates locally. This is annoying

A curl example to help explain this Stack Overflow question related to creating a new branch via the GitHub Git Refs API:

Get the SHA of latest commit on the `master` branch

curl -i https://api.github.com/repos/jasonrudolph/sandbox/git/refs/heads/master \
    -H "Authorization: token REDACTED"
