    I’m not going to dive into Git commands here — you can find plenty of tutorials online. If you’re not a fan of using the plain terminal CLI, you can also manage repositories with tools like GitHub Desktop or SourceTree, which provide a more visual, intuitive interface.

  • File Governance and Versioning in Corticon BRMS
    2 projects | dev.to | 3 Oct 2024
    Using terminal commands isn’t necessary for basic adoption of Git with Corticon Studio files, though. There are various tools that will allow us to bypass the command line when defining rules, including the built-in Eclipse plugin for Git version control. If you’ll be storing your assets on GitHub, though, an even easier solution is GitHub Desktop, a free desktop software that GitHub offers. It can be used in conjunction with Corticon Studio, handling most git commands for you. For full instructions on getting set up with GitHub desktop, follow the guides they provide here.

  • An Introduction to Nix for Ruby Developers
    8 projects | dev.to | 21 Aug 2024
    Nix currently is akin to git's "porcelain": powerful but esoteric. However, much like git evolved into exoteric, user-friendly tools such as git-flow, GitHub Desktop, and Tower to become user-friendly, many developers are building abstractions, wrappers, and utilities to simplify Nix usage. Let's briefly look at a few of these tools now.

  • Launch HN: Diversion (YC S22) – Cloud-Native Git Alternative

    Congrats on the launch! It's always exciting to see more competition in the version control space.

    One question I have is whether you guys are better than:

    https://desktop.github.com/

    This seems to do the exact same thing, be free forever, and have a more mature GUI that is also easier to use than regular terminal git. In my firm, even with people who don't know how to code, they can use github desktop (since it babies you through the process of committing code.)
