Every so often I have to restore my gpg keys and I'm never sure how best to do it. So, I've spent some time playing around with the various ways to export/import (backup/restore) keys.

Method 1

Backup the public and secret keyrings and trust database

cp ~/.gnupg/pubring.gpg /path/to/backups/
cp ~/.gnupg/secring.gpg /path/to/backups/
cp ~/.gnupg/trustdb.gpg /path/to/backups/

or, instead of backing up trustdb...

#define _XOPEN_SOURCE 500 /* Enable certain library functions (strdup) on linux.  See feature_test_macros(7) */

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

# This number should be, at maximum, the number of CPU cores on your system. 
# (since nginx doesn't benefit from more than one worker per CPU.)
worker_processes 8;
 
 
# Determines how many clients will be served by each worker process.
# (Max clients = worker_connections * worker_processes)
# "Max clients" is also limited by the number of socket connections available on the system (~64k)
# run ss -s  and u'll see a timewait param
# The reason for TIMED_WAIT is to handle the case of packets arriving after the socket is closed.

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.
