Forking a Github repo to Bitbucket
Go to Bitbucket and create a new repository (its better to have an empty repo)
git clone git@bitbucket.org:abc/myforkedrepo.git
cd myforkedrepo
Now add Github repo as a new remote in Bitbucket called "sync"
git remote add sync git@github.com:def/originalrepo.git
Verify what are the remotes currently being setup for "myforkedrepo". This following command should show "fetch" and "push" for two remotes i.e. "origin" and "sync"
git remote -v

MySQL to Sqlite converter
#!/bin/sh
# Converts a mysqldump file into a Sqlite 3 compatible file. It also extracts the MySQL `KEY xxxxx` from the
# CREATE block and create them in separate commands _after_ all the INSERTs.
# Awk is choosen because it's fast and portable. You can use gawk, original awk or even the lightning fast mawk.
# The mysqldump file is traversed only once.
# Usage: $ ./mysql2sqlite mysqldump-opts db-name | sqlite3 database.sqlite
# Example: $ ./mysql2sqlite --no-data -u root -pMySecretPassWord myDbase | sqlite3 database.sqlite

Run MailCatcher in the background, always, on OS X

Place me.mailcatcher.plist into ~/Library/LaunchAgents, then run launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/me.mailcatcher.plist.

If you use pow, echo 1080 > ~/.pow/mailcatcher and go to http://mailcatcher.dev, otherwise use http://localhost:1080.

Currently pow doesn't seem to pass websockets through correctly. Looking into this.
