Create a Gource visualization of the Rails codebase as it crosses into GitHub land...

	# On a Mac
	# brew install gource (http://code.google.com/p/gource/)
	# brew install ffmpeg
	# git clone https://github.com/rails/rails.git

	# In the rails code directory, run this to see the same visualization
	gource --hide bloom,files,filenames,dirnames --auto-skip-seconds 0.3 --seconds-per-day 0.003 --date-format "%B %Y" --start-position 0.2 --stop-position 0.45 --file-idle-time 10 --stop-at-end -1024x768

	# Or do this to save it to a reusable video:

timshadel / alias-bundle-exec.bash

Created September 22, 2011 05:04

Ideas for eliminating 'bundle exec' when using rbenv

	#!/usr/bin/env bash
	#
	# Put this in ~/.rbenv/rbenv.d/init/
	# Based in part on http://twistedmind.com/bundle-exec-bash-shortcut
	# For a completely different take, see https://github.com/carsomyr/rbenv-bundler
	#
	# Slower. More correct? Choosing faster one for now.
	# echo bundled_bins=$`rbenv exec ruby -rbundler/setup -e 'puts Bundler.rubygems.all_specs.map{\|s\| s.executables}.flatten.join(" ")'`$

	# Only aliases executable names of the global Ruby. Cheap way to `rbenv exec` in every version?

Ask curl to connect to localhost, but send the Host header with a different value

$ curl -H "Host: fake.com" http://localhost:8585

curl will hang until you kill the server.
