jdillick / find_closest_sha1.py
Created January 17, 2013 16:06
Found this little gem of python for comparing a git repo to an un-versioned copy of the code. I returns the closest commit hash from the git repository corresponding to your code. This works great when you don't know what version of the code you have running.
#!/usr/bin/env python
import subprocess
import shlex
import sys
import os
import operator
gitdir,workdir=map(os.path.realpath,sys.argv[1:3])
os.chdir(gitdir)
proc=subprocess.Popen(shlex.split('git rev-list --all'),stdout=subprocess.PIPE)

Dynamic drush aliases. Just modify $paths to include the directory to your drupal installs, and you have instant aliases.
<?php
// the current environment
$env = $_ENV['ENVTYPE'] ? $_ENV['ENVTYPE'] : '';
// paths to search for drupal sites
$paths = array(
'/var/www/multisites/',
'/var/www/schoolyard/',
);

Unlock a Mac System Preferences Pane

Unlock Pesky System Preference Pane Lockdown

Note, you're local mac account must have sudo privs for this to work. If you're in the same boat I'm in, there is some piece of management software (e.g. casper) installed on your system that removes access to system preference panes when you login (to a domain).

In my case, the "Security and Privacy" pane was removed by a network admin for I'm sure they believed to be very important reasons, but this prevents me from using my window management tool (BetterSnapTool).

On to the steps

In this example, I'm unlocking the "Security and Privacy" pane. You will need to substitue your locked panes plist below.

Stuff I wish I'd known sooner about service workers

Stuff I wish I'd known sooner about service workers

I recently had several days of extremely frustrating experiences with service workers. Here are a few things I've since learned which would have made my life much easier but which isn't particularly obvious from most of the blog posts and videos I've seen.

I'll add to this list over time – suggested additions welcome in the comments or via twitter.com/rich_harris.

Use Canary for development instead of Chrome stable

Chrome 51 has some pretty wild behaviour related to console.log in service workers. Canary doesn't, and it has a load of really good service worker related stuff in devtools.
