Checkout github pull requests locally

Locate the section for your github remote in the .git/config file. It looks like this:

[remote "origin"]
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	url = git@github.com:joyent/node.git

Now add the line fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/* to this section. Obviously, change the github url to match your project's URL. It ends up looking like this:

[How To] Synchronize NTP server to a GPS/PPS source

So, I want to have a GPS Receiver driving a PPS (pulse-per-second) signal to the NTP server for a highly accurate time reference service.

Introduction

There are at least a couple of ways to propagate the PPS signal to the ntpd (NTP daemon) service, plus some variants in each case. However, the GPS device must be seen as a device that sources two different types of data:

  • the absolute date and time, and
  • the 1Hz clock signal (PPS).

The first one provides the complete information (incl. date and time) about when now is, but with poor accuracy because data is sent over the serial port and then encoded using a specific protocol such as NMEA (National Marine Electronics Association). PPS provides instead a very accurate clock but without any reference to absolute time.

Setting up WKD for self-hosted automatic key discovery

I just got this working so I figured I'd share what I found, since there's hardly any information about this anywhere online except an RFC, the GPG mailing list and one tutorial from the GnuPG blog.

You can use automatic key discovery with WKD (Web key directory) to make it easy for users to import your key, in GPG since version 2.1.12. Since this feature is fairly new, it isn't yet available in the current LTS release of Ubuntu (16.04; xenial), however it is available in Debian stable (stretch).

I couldn't add a DNS CERT or DANE / OPENPGPKEY record through my email service (which also hosts my nameservers). I tried making the PKA record - a foo._pka.example.com TXT record but GPG doesn't seem to recognize it and fails; I'm still investigating why.

So the last option for self-hosted auto-discovery was WKD.

First thing I had to do was add an email address to my key. My primary UID is just my name so the key represents my identity rather

GPG + Git SSH Authentication and Signing on Windows 10

GPG + Git SSH Authentication and Signing on Windows 10

Introduction

This simple Gist will explain how to settup your GPG key to work for SSH authentication (with Git) and Git commit signing on Windows 10. This may seem straightforward on Linux, but there are certain tweaks needed on Windows.

No Cygwin, no MinGW, no Git Bash or any other Linux emulated environment. This works in pure Windows 10.
