What I'm asking when I ask you to review my pull request

It took me a long time to warm up to pull requests. My early experiences with code review were all a tremendous waste of time: they were a bottleneck to getting things done, a forum for people to conduct their ongoing feuds or both. After years of being staunchly against pull requests, I've come around on them in the last year at Terrible Labs.

What I'm asking when I ask you to review my pull request

1. Does this make sense to you?

Start with cthe big picture and get more detailed from there.

My pull request should be trying to accomplish only one thing and that should be explained in enough detail in the commit message for you to understand, did I succeed? If something is confusing: you're not sure how this system works, or how this new piece of code fits in with other parts of the system, let me know and we can clarify it together.

Running redis using upstart on Ubuntu

I've been trying to understand how to setup systems from the ground up on Ubuntu. I just installed redis onto the box and here's how I did it and some things to look out for.

To install:

Unicorn that receives USR2 signal on upstart's "stop unicorn", but also allows upstart to respawn it when for some reason it crashed on its own.

Upstart config for a Rails app using Unicorn HTTP server

Using Unicorn with Upstart

This configuration works with Upstart on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

The reason why it needs to be done this way (i.e. with the pre-start and post-stop stanzas), is because Upstart is unable to track whever Unicorn master process re-execs itself on hot deploys. One can use it without hot-deploys and run Unicorn in foreground also, it then only needs one exec stanza.

This presumes you are not using RVM, so no voodoo dances.
