git pr - Global .gitconfig aliases for Pull Request Managment

Install

Either copy the aliases from the .gitconfig or run the commands in add-pr-alias.sh

Usage

Easily checkout local copies of pull requests from remotes:

  • git pr 4 - creates local branch pr/4 from the github upstream(if it exists) or origin remote and checks it out
  • git pr 4 someremote - creates local branch pr/4 from someremote remote and checks it out

Port forwarding in Mavericks

Port Forwarding in Mavericks


Since Mavericks stopped using the deprecated ipfw (as of Mountain Lion), we'll be using pf to allow port forwarding.

Nginx FastCGI cache configuration example.

Nginx FastCGI cache

Example /etc/nginx/nginx.conf using FastCGI (e.g. to PHP-FPM) with FastCGI cache enabled. This will capture returned data and persist it to a disk based cache store for a configurable amount of time, great for robust full page caching.

Will need to create a directory to hold cache files, for the example given here that would be:

$ sudo mkdir -p /var/cache/nginxfastcgi
$ chown www-data: /var/cache/nginxfastcgi

Folder Structure

Please note

While this gist has been shared and followed for years, I regret not giving more background. It was originally a gist for the engineering org I was in, not a "general suggestion" for any React app.

Typically I avoid folders altogether. Heck, I even avoid new files. If I can build an app with one 2000 line file I will. New files and folders are a pain.
