a simple git branching model

a simple git branching model (written in 2013)

This is a very simple git workflow. It (and variants) is in use by many people. I settled on it after using it very effectively at Athena. GitHub does something similar; Zach Holman mentioned it in this talk.

Update: Woah, thanks for all the attention. Didn't expect this simple rant to get popular.

Sample node.js server code to implement an XMPP server that will integrate with Android's Google Cloud Messaging (GCM) "device to cloud" message functionality - CCS. This sample only receives upstream messages (i.e. from the device).
var xmpp = require('node-xmpp');
//Set node-xmpp options.
//Replace with your projectID in the jid and your API key in the password
//The key settings for CCS are the last two to force SSL and Plain SASL auth.
var options = {
type: 'client',
jid: 'XXXXXXXXX@gcm.googleapis.com',
password: 'XXXXXXXX',
port: 5235,

The Ultimate Git Alias Setup

The Ultimate Git Alias Setup

If you use git on the command-line, you'll eventually find yourself wanting aliases for your most commonly-used commands. It's incredibly useful to be able to explore your repos with only a few keystrokes that eventually get hardcoded into muscle memory.

Some people don't add aliases because they don't want to have to adjust to not having them on a remote server. Personally, I find that having aliases doesn't mean I that forget the underlying commands, and aliases provide such a massive improvement to my workflow that it would be crazy not to have them.

The simplest way to add an alias for a specific git command is to use a standard bash alias.
