Update 2022: git checkout -p <other-branch> is basically a shortcut for all this.

FYI This was written in 2010, though I guess people still find it useful at least as of 2021. I haven't had to do it ever again, so if it goes out of date I probably won't know.

Example: You have a branch refactor that is quite different from master. You can't merge all of the commits, or even every hunk in any single commit or master will break, but you have made a lot of improvements there that you would like to bring over to master.

Note: This will not preserve the original change authors. Only use if necessary, or if you don't mind losing that information, or if you are only merging your own work.

Changes to my Mac

Turn off "press and hold" for foreign letters, allowing you to then press and hold for repeat letters. Open Terminal and run:

defaults write NSGlobalDomain ApplePressAndHoldEnabled -bool false

Then you need to close/reopen any app before it takes effect.

Make the dock appear faster when using auto hide:

    .SYNOPSIS
        Connects to remote desktop using the specified credentials by automating UI input using WASP
    .DESCRIPTION
        Requires the WASP (Windows Automation Scripting in PowerShell) module to be installed.

        This script is a workaround for environments where GPOs don't allow saving credentials,
        but we only have the credentials via an API from PowerShell.
        ... hey, it's better than exposing the plain text in a browser and copy-pasting via the clipboard!
