Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Ask HN: Who needs beta testers? (February 2023)
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.

sd: your script directory
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).
https://github.com/davvid/garden
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.

Ask HN: Have you created programs for only your personal use?
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.

Show HN: Dotenv, if it is a Unix utility
I think direnv already does a good job in this space, and it's already available in your package manager.

Mise is a polyglot tool version manager
I switched from asdf to mise after a comment on lobste.rs[1] suggested I do so a few months ago, and I have been very happy with it.
It sands off some of asdf's sharp UI edges and provides a somewhat larger but still reasonable feature set; I've also replaced most of my direnv[2] usage with it.
The mise -> asdf comparison page is useful[3]

Nix-direnv is a quality of life improvement
I also made the export diff configurable, motivated by this post: https://github.com/direnv/direnv/pull/1233

Conditional Git Configuration
Nice.
For years I've been using [direnv](https://direnv.net/) for this, setting environment variables which git picks up. This looks like a more feature complete equivalent, although to be honest I only really need switching of committer email and the SSH key used.

Development Environments with Guix, similar to devenv.sh
Direnv, for the uninitiated, loads and unloads environment variables when directories are entered and exited. Under every project folder there is a `$PROJ_DIR/.envrc` which contains:
-
Emacs Advent Calendar 9: devdocs, code-cells, dREPL, etc.
buffer-env: A pure-Elisp version of the direnv utility. Useful to make Emacs aware of Python virtualenvs (which, judging by the questions posted here, is unfortunately still a complication for a lot of people). Similar to (and inspired by) envrc, but doesn't require the direnv program.
-
golang cli vs env var in windows?
You can look at direnv to see this in action as they wrote shell hooks that get loaded into the shell profile and are executed on every prompt. https://direnv.net/
-
Nix Survival Mode: macOS upgrades won't break Nix anymore
Yes, most Nix users employ https://direnv.net or the equivalent for your IDE of choice. Emacs for instance has https://github.com/purcell/envrc which set per-buffer variables.
