T-SQL Tips

Get definitions for all stored procedures and functions for a database

Getting the definitions can be useful when attempting to locate specific constants or dynamic usage of other database objects such as functions or tables.

select p.[name], s.[definition]
from sys.procedures p
 inner join sys.sql_modules s on p.[object_id] = s.[object_id]

If you are like me you find yourself cloning a repo, making some proposed changes and then deciding to later contributing back using the GitHub Flow convention. Below is a set of instructions I've developed for myself on how to deal with this scenario and an explanation of why it matters based on jagregory's gist.

To follow GitHub flow you should really have created a fork initially as a public representation of the forked repository and the clone that instead. My understanding is that the typical setup would have your local repository pointing to your fork as origin and the original forked repository as upstream so that you can use these keywords in other git commands.

1. Clone some repo (you've probably already done this step)

   git clone git@github...some-repo.git

Install Windows 10 VM free on Windows 7

If you find yourself forced to work in a Windows 7 environment but need or would like access to some Windows 10 features it turns out there is at least one way that I've stumbled accross which has worked for me.

Install a Virtual Machine

As far as free options that are well supported in Windows 7 Oracle Virtual Box seemed to be the best option I could find. If you go this route make sure to enable virtualization in the BIOS of your system to enable installing a 64-bit guest OS.

Install Windows 10 Pro as as a Guest OS
