A Very Simple Genetic Algorithm Written in Swift 3
#!/usr/bin/env xcrun swift -O
/*
gen.swift is a direct port of cfdrake's helloevolve.py from Python 2.7 to Swift 3
-------------------- https://gist.github.com/cfdrake/973505 ---------------------
gen.swift implements a genetic algorithm that starts with a base
population of randomly generated strings, iterates over a certain number of
generations while implementing 'natural selection', and prints out the most fit
string.
The parameters of the simulation can be changed by modifying one of the many

Amazon ID plugin for YUM. This will add 2 headers to the HTTP requests. With these headers the YUM repo server can identify the EC2 instance. These files come from the rh-amazon-rhui-client RPM package found on RHEL EC2 instances, probably part of the Red Hat Update Infrastructure (https://access.redhat.com/products/red-hat-update-infrastructure/)…

Git: Merge other repository into subfolder

Copy the child repo to your /tmp (Or into another ramdisk, should be faster)

cd into the new repo.

Now lets rewirte stuff.

Move into subdirectory (here called "report"):

git filter-branch --index-filter \

'git ls-files -s | sed "s-$(printf '''\t''')"*-&report/-" |
