Badass git pull alias (up) to show commit log that just got pulled in addition to changes

Badass git pull alternative

Add this little snippet to your ~/.gitconfig and it amps up your git pull by means of git up

  1. Adds in a list of the commits you're pulling down
  2. Auto-prunes remote branches
  3. Defaults to pull --rebase - gets rid of unnecessary merge commits. If you don't know what rebase does, this is probably safe for you. If you know what rebase does, you should know where this will not be safe for you.

Scott Chacon and Ryan Tomayko basically figured out how to do this and I am stealing all of the credit.

Use one of these techniques to install node and npm without having to sudo. Discussed in more detail at http://joyeur.com/2010/12/10/installing-node-and-npm/ Note: npm >=0.3 is *safer* when using sudo.
echo 'export PATH=$HOME/local/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc
. ~/.bashrc
mkdir ~/local
mkdir ~/node-latest-install
cd ~/node-latest-install
curl http://nodejs.org/dist/node-latest.tar.gz | tar xz --strip-components=1
./configure --prefix=~/local
make install # ok, fine, this step probably takes more than 30 seconds...

Objective-C Coding Convention and Best Practices

Most of these guidelines are to match Apple's documentation and community-accepted best practices. Some are derived some personal preference. This document aims to set a standard way of doing things so everyone can do things the same way. If there is something you are not particularly fond of, it is encouraged to do it anyway to be consistent with everyone else.

This document is mainly targeted toward iOS development, but definitely applies to Mac as well.
