I may or may not be tweaking my own fork of a static site generator for #git repos... 👀

Man, I need a table of commands of #Git or #Mercurial equivalent in #CVS!

Has been ages since I last used the latter ... might have been c late 1990, when I switched to Subversion.

Any news on when #NetBSD be switching to Mercurial|Git?

I have a script called "git-unreleased":

git log -p "$(git tag --list --sort version:refname | tail -n1)"..

I find this very useful. I run it when preparing release notes, for example.

#git #releaseNotes

People that like to display the current #Git branch on your terminal prompt or title: how do you handle the case where a different process switches branches?

If you are sad about having missed my tutorial introducing users to the #Git compatible version control system #GameOfTrees at #EuroBSDcon two weeks ago, you can download the full tutorial instructions and work through all the same steps as people did in the room with me:

I think I'm slowly going to make my way back to self-hosting my repositories (via cgit, most likely). Most providers now either have too strict of rules or none at all...

Probably better to have full control anyway 🤷

#git #selfHosting

ok, #git question:

* I want to incorporate https://github.com/marovira/lua into a project
* i want to make project-specific patches
* I want it to be easy to pull from upstream

Thoughts???

🚀 #Gitte 0.10.0 is out!

* Side-by-side diffs in the working copy & history
* Git LFS setup & tracked pattern management
* Add, update, configure & remove submodules
* Manage remotes & delete remote branches
* Per-repository commit & tag signing configuration
* Much faster startup, commit graphs & staging

Plus light & dark mode settings, UI improvements, and lots of fixes.

I just realized I haven't logged into #GitHub in well over a year at this point.

I don't think I'll be looking back, now that I've found home in #Radicle.

#DVCS #git #programming

#GitSpawn seens to be a git- rather than an AI problem. PoC:

mkdir test
cd test
git init
echo " fsmonitor=calc" >>.git/config
git diff
-> calc

No AI coding agent needed for exploitation.

If you have to leave #sourcehut because of their (well-argued!) LLM policy, and your project is mainly for a very small team of devs or maybe just yourself, take a look at how I solved the same issue migrating from #codeberg.

Do we really need to run heavy forges for small projects? I think not!

Game of Trees 0.127 released https://undeadly.org/cgi?action=article;sid=20260721102106 #openbsd #gameoftrees #got #git #versioncontrol #development #freesoftware #libresoftware

In good news, #Radicle is teaching me a lot about #git.

I will be hosting a #GameOfTrees version control system tutorial at #EuroBSDCon 2026, with @op as co-host (edit: Turns out Omar cannot make it; Johannes Thyssen Tishman will be co-hosting instead).

This tutorial will be suitable for both #Git experts and complete beginners. The experts will probably spend significant effort temporarily unlearning some things they know, while the beginners will spend moderate effort learning some things they didn't know. Our goal is that both groups will broaden their version control horizons a bit and have fun doing so ​

#verblog #freebsd #git #gitlab #server

To clarify my #git issue: I would like a setup where I have a local 'emacs-31' branch, checked out, with remote upstream '<something>/emacs-31', and where <something>/emacs-31 is updated by/from both Savannah and Github, so that when I pull from either this ripples through to the on-disk, checked out state I'm building pre-release Emacs 31 from.

AFAIK this can't be done with normal separate remotes; you can 'git fetch' from both but only one will update the local disk state on 'git pull'.

A crazy question for #git people: is there any easy way to configure a single branch to have two upstreams (one true master, one a mirror of it), so that I could set up a Emacs git repo mirror with both Savannah and Github as its upstreams and pull from either to update origin/emacs-31 (aka 'emacs-31' locally)?

Obviously you can do this manually by switching remote origins back and forth, but I'd like something easier where I just do 'git pull savannah' (or 'git pull github').

It's just if I ever die, they might be worth saving for someone.
