Setup GitHub Pages "gh-pages" branch as a subfolder within the "master" project on your local checkout - a step-by-step guide.

Intro

Setup GitHub Pages "gh-pages" branch as a subfolder within the "master" project on your local checkout.

IMPORTANT

If you plan on switching between different branches (e.g. git checkout master-experiment then revert back with git checkout master) you will loose your child folder from this tutorial (because it's in your .gitignore and is not part of your master branch).

SSH known_hosts tools
# This is a short collection of tools that are useful for managing your
# known_hosts file. In this case, I'm using the '-f' flag to specify the
# global known_hosts file because I'll be adding many deploy users on this
# system. Simply omit the -f flag to operate on ~/.ssh/known_hosts
# Add entry for host
ssh-keyscan -H github.com >> /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts
# Scan known hosts
ssh-keygen -f /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts -F github.com

Common markup for Markdown and reStructuredText

Markdown and reStructuredText

GitHub supports several lightweight markup languages for documentation; the most popular ones (generally, not just at GitHub) are Markdown and reStructuredText. Markdown is sometimes considered easier to use, and is often preferred when the purpose is simply to generate HTML. On the other hand, reStructuredText is more extensible and powerful, with native support (not just embedded HTML) for tables, as well as things like automatic generation of tables of contents.

A quick script to clean up Gerrit branches. I tend to have 1 branch per commit for Gerrit reviews, which means that after some time there are a ton of stale branches sitting around. This script examines all your branches, looking for ones which have a change-id that also exists in the current branch. If it has found such a commit, it prompts you…
function git-branch-current() {
printf "%s\n" $(git branch 2> /dev/null | grep -e ^* | tr -d "\* ")
}
function git-branch-cleanup() {
local currentBranch=$(git-branch-current)
local otherBranch=
for otherBranch in $(git branch | grep -v $currentBranch) ; do
printf "Branch %s:\n" "$otherBranch"
printf " HEAD commit is: %s\n" "$(git log --oneline -n 1 $otherBranch)"
