    • Project mention: So You Think You Know Git – Git Tips and Tricks by Scott Chacon | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-13

    Yesterday I was actually trying to find out which are the top 10 file which were having most of the modifications after they were created and I stumbled upon https://github.com/tj/git-extras/blob/main/Commands.md

    Some great extra git command are there.

  • pure

    Pretty, minimal and fast ZSH prompt (by sindresorhus)

    • Project mention: Carapace: A multi-shell completion library and binary | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-22

    Beyond zprof (https://www.bigbinary.com/blog/zsh-profiling) not really I'm afraid. I did the majority of my zsh-prompt hacking 10 years ago and haven't thought about it since. That snippet could be from anywhere.

    You could peek at something like zprezto https://github.com/sorin-ionescu/prezto or pure https://github.com/sindresorhus/pure for tips.

    Fetching git/hg/... info is always slow, so try and speed that up where you can (as to how to do that, uhh... I know my prompt has a dirty-state check nicked from pure for speed reasons). You can also cache any `asdf init zsh` or similar to a file and do the same "run in background" trick so the next shell will have any changes.

    The biggest improvement I can remember was dropping zprezto for my own much smaller config, I really did not need much comparatively. Mostly some git info and "good default" options. I use zgenom for a plugin manager but only have 3 plugins, probably I should just dump it and inline the plugins to avoid getting owned one day.

  • forgit

    • Project mention: A TUI Git client inspired by Magit | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-11

    i don't like tuis that much (other than for editing text, i mean), but i also really don't like git's command line interface.

    so i've been using forgit, which basically adds a really nice fzf interface for git. it really fits the way i work within a terminal (i'm a heavy fzf user).

  • git-secret

    :busts_in_silhouette: A bash-tool to store your private data inside a git repository.

    • Project mention: Gittuf – a security layer for Git using some concepts introduced by TUF | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-10-24

    I've happily been using git-secret (https://sobolevn.me/git-secret/) for encrypting non-critical (i.e. non-production) secrets for a while now. It sounds like Gittuf will do a lot more than git-secret, but for the use case of encrypted files specifically, is there a significant different about with the approach that Gittuf has taken?

    • Project mention: Ask HN: What Underrated Open Source Project Deserves More Recognition? | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-07

    I have a work mac, work linux, and home mac. I want the same terminal-based development environment on all of them, but each requires just a little bit of customization.

    For example, the .gitconfig for work is different from home (e.g. my username/email). Ditto for my .ssh/config and my shell aliases.

    I also use Nix to manage all my tools, and the home-manager configuration is slightly different between mac & linux due to platform support.

    I've gone through a few iterations of home-built solutions, including extending homeshick[1], before discovering YADM which implemented everything I had done but better.
