Trying to figure out why I'm having to manually require a class that is within the same namespace inside of Rails.
# located in lib/pumper/nickel.rb
# the only way Back.setup works inside of #add_crappy_music
# is if I add the following:
# require "pumper/nickel/back"
#
# Why?
module Pumper
class Nickel < ActiveRecord::Base

Really naive CHANGELOG parser we used on Code School for a while to export public-facing release notes from a private-ish CHANGELOG.md file.

Decoupling CSS IDs from RSpec/Capybara feature specs with centralized YAML list. We use this for Code School feature specs.
# Defines a method returning the selector for a CSS selector
# used within the test suite to scope a feature spec.
#
# Developers: always use these instead of hard-coding CSS selectors
# when scoping or selecting crucial elements on a page.
# Designers: always check this module before/after modifying existing
# classes or IDs that may cause test failures
#
# Example usage:
# - page.should have_selector(CSS.some_method)

I dream of easier merge conflict resolution on GitHub Pull Requests

Howdy,

It's currently a bit of a hassle (unless I'm doing it wrong) to fix a PR that used to be green but is now unmergeable due to an simple little merge conflict with master.

It would be quite fantabulous if I could access the swanky invisible PR branches from the web interface in order to quickly fix the merge conflict and merge/close the PR without having to:

  • ask & wait for the submitter to fix a conflict they might not understand better than I do (since master likely caused it if the branch is green)
  • tediously add the submitter's repo as a remote and pull their branch, merge master in it to fix the conflict and either submit a PR to their fork or merge it into master directly (which sadly by-passes the existing PR)
  • do the local PR checkout trick (but I'm lazy, don't make me do it!)

A dream solution that would make GitHub even more addictive would be an interactive conflict resolutio
