Setting up a SSL Cert from Comodo

I use Namecheap.com as a registrar, and they resale SSL Certs from a number of other companies, including Comodo.

These are the steps I went through to set up an SSL cert.

HOWTO: Using FileMerge (opendiff) with Git on OSX

FileMerge (opendiff) can really come in handy when you need to visually compare merging conflicts. Other times it's just a nice visual way to review your days work.

The following method works by creating a simple bash script (git-diff-cmd.sh) that sets us up with the proper command line arguments for Git to pass off files to FileMerge.

	#!/bin/bash

	# REPO_NAME=<repo>.git
	# ORIGIN_URL=git@<host>:<project>/$REPO_NAME
	# REPO1_URL=git@<host>:<project>/$REPO_NAME

	rm -rf $REPO_NAME
	git clone --bare $ORIGIN_URL
	if [ "$?" != "0" ]; then
	echo "ERROR: failed clone of $ORIGIN_URL"

	#!/bin/bash
	#
	# consul Manage the consul agent
	#
	# chkconfig: 2345 95 95
	# description: Consul is a tool for service discovery and configuration
	# processname: consul
	# config: /etc/consul.conf
	# pidfile: /var/run/consul.pid

	// Method 1: simply use Highcharts built-in functionality (SVG -> Highcharts server -> PNG)
	// Downside: won't work in webview native apps that don't handle the form response
	highcharts.exportChart({
	filename: filename
	});

	Go to Bitbucket and create a new repository (its better to have an empty repo)
	git clone [email protected]:abc/myforkedrepo.git
	cd myforkedrepo

	Now add Github repo as a new remote in Bitbucket called "sync"
	git remote add sync [email protected]:def/originalrepo.git

	Verify what are the remotes currently being setup for "myforkedrepo". This following command should show "fetch" and "push" for two remotes i.e. "origin" and "sync"
	git remote -v
