Fix %config(noreplace) files without reinstalling package

You can fix %config(noreplace) files without deleting and reinstalling. If package is not essential, it is easiest way. But for every essentia package/config file it is not recommended to remove them.

Run this as root to preserve users and other stuff. Download package. Unpack it. Move files to fix over old ones. You need also to copy selinux context and maybe capabilities. Cpio does not know about them. You need to set them by hand before moving file in place.

You also need to copy file attributes, extended attributes and ACL entries if there is some.

High Accuracy Pi RTC (DS3231) installation in Ubuntu 19.10 in Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.1
Base instructions are here:
http://wiki.seeedstudio.com/High_Accuracy_Pi_RTC-DS3231/
But I've diverted my setup procedure somewhat because Ubuntu boot setup is different than Raspbian and setup does some things not needed.
To use RTC early in the boot add "fixrtc" to kernel boot command line. Correct file is "/boot/firmware/nobtcmd.txt".
This is implemented in "/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-premount/fixrtc".

bash function for git log as JSON
# attempting to be the most robust solution for outputting git log as JSON,
# using only bash shell syntax, `git`, `sed` and `tr`.
# - uses traditional JSON camelCase
# - includes every major field that git log can output, including the body
# - proper sections for author, committer, and signature
# - multiple date formats (one for reading, ISO for parsing)
# - properly handle body values, even those that contain quotation marks and
# escaped characters
# - outputs as minimized JSON, can be piped to `jq` for pretty printing
