garden VS cmdg

https://github.com/davvid/garden

Project Description: Garden is a git multi-repo powertool. Garden lets you define custom workflows over arbitrary collections of git trees.

If you find yourself running bespoke commands across a smattering of git repositories then Garden can be a big improvement over a big pile o' scripts and repos.

What do you want to be tested: Test the documented feature-set and new-user onboarding experience. Give feedback on its usefulness as a development/testing aid.

If you're into this kinda thing then then you might be interested in my take on improving over a "big pile o scripts" (and repos).

Garden is a multi-repo powertool for running custom commands and mashing random shell scripts and loosely-coupled repos into a version-controllable config file. If you're weird like me you might like it.

I ended up with so many random git repos, shell scripts and other miscellany that I ended up writing a tool to manage that stuff using a yaml file so that it's easy to transport and recreate my setup anywhere.

"garden" is kinda like a mashup of the flexibility/power of shell scripts with the convenience of being able to declare your development environment.

I was kinda surprised when someone submitted the first issue =)

git-cola was pretty much written for my own personal use, but it grew a few more users as well.

Partly the reason I wrote and use this command line client for GMail: https://github.com/ThomasHabets/cmdg

Also became a fun learning experience about terminals.

I wanted to use GMail from a fast cli that used the native gmail API.

I wanted to download concurrently and according to patterns. Ok, so honestly this one probably exists somewhere in a form that I would like, but I couldn't find it.

https://github.com/ThomasHabets/sim

I wanted multi-party authorization for sudo, and couldn't find one.

People kept using gettimeofday, so this is part of my compaign against it. (see https://blog.habets.se/2010/09/gettimeofday-should-never-be-...)

https://github.com/ThomasHabets/gtping

I worked in mobile core networks, and wanted a "ping" that used the GTP protocol since that won't be firewalled.

https://github.com/ThomasHabets/ind

I wanted my bash scripts to have automatic indentation, while not sacrificing buffering latency and such.

https://github.com/ThomasHabets/tlscheck

I wanted a simple tool to audit my TLS certificates for expiry.

I was travelling to China on vacation and wanted a VPN out that would be unlikely to be blocked by the great firewall. Ok, so there are many VPN-like tools for getting through the GFW. Maybe it was just an excuse for me to write it. Honestly ssh -D would have likely worked just fine. It's being used by the keymaster project now though, so maybe it did something right: https://github.com/Cloud-Foundations/keymaster/blob/master/d...

I wanted to lock down SSH to anyone who doesn't have a secret key (and portknocking is usually ridiculous). Why not use TCP MD5 for it? https://github.com/google/tcpauth

Also, aerc. Or something like cmdg for Gmail specifically.
