Say you want to push a git repo. that you've been working on privately to a publicly viewable place, how do you review not just the current working copy / HEAD for sensitive information, but the whole history of files that might contain details you don't want to make public? Something like this seems reasonably efficient:

git log --patch --reverse path/to/file.py | grep '\(^+\|^commit\)'| sed 's/^+//'

Including only lines starting with "+" or "commit" shows you only what's added to the file. As long as you start at the beginning, the deletions (lines starting with "-") and context (everything else) don't matter.

Deleting the '+' at the beginning of each line means you can dump the output from the above into your favorite editor to get syntax highlighting, which perhaps makes it easier to read. You might need to use a temporary file with an appropriate extension, e.g.:

git log --patch --reverse path/to/file.py | grep '\(^+\|^commit\)'| sed 's/^+//; s/^commit/#commit/' >delme.py

# The problem seems to be that createhd / storageattach do not register the
# media in any media registry, so non-standard media locations aren't
# findable.
#
# The quick hack vb_register_drive.py below can be used to register the media in
# either Virtualbox.xml or the .vbox file of a machine, and then everything works.
# vb_register_drive.py is a quick and dirty hack with lots of assumptions

# this is my recipe for making a vm on a headless machine which fails as seen

Backups with rsync's --link-dest are great, they let you keep backup daily versions of files with instant file level access while being fast and relatively space efficient.

The code below prunes duplicates etc. from large collections of --link-dest based incremental backups when the overhead of the directory structure etc. starts to consume too much space.

Warp / teleport / relocate / move mouse / pointer / cursor when it's
moved over / enters an invisible window / region of the screen / display.

Can be used to override physical monitor layout.  I have three
monitors, 2 x 1680x1050, and one 1920x1080.  I'd like them laid out
out left to right 1680x1050 1920x1080 1680x1050 but the graphics
cards I'm using can't render across that total width, so instead
