simple squash without rebase
## within current branch, squashes all commits that are ahead of master down into one
## useful if you merged with upstream in the middle of your commits (rebase could get very ugly if this is the case)
## commit any working changes on branch "mybranchname", then...
git checkout master
git checkout -b mybranchname_temp
git merge --squash mybranchname
git commit -am "Message describing all squashed commits"
git branch -m mybranchname mybranchname_unsquashed
git branch -m mybranchname

James White Manifesto
== Rules ==
On Infrastructure
-----------------
There is one system, not a collection of systems.
The desired state of the system should be a known quantity.
The "known quantity" must be machine parseable.
The actual state of the system must self-correct to the desired state.
The only authoritative source for the actual state of the system is the system.
The entire system must be deployable using source media and text files.

Upgrade PostgreSQL 9.4 to 9.5 on Mac OS X with Homebrew

First, check your current config (example output in homebrew.mxcl.postgresql.plist.xml lower down in this gist):

cat ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.postgresql.plist

Most importantly, note the -D /usr/local/var/postgres argument.

Second, shut down your current PostgreSQL.

launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.postgresql.plist

Why I Chose Fish Over Bash For Students

Why I chose Fish over Bash for students

I'm currently the lead instructor at Code Platoon and an instructor/developer at the Turing School of Software and Design.

I've been advocating the Fish shell and when the choice is up to me, I choose that for my students. Enough people ask about the decision, particularly in relation to the preinstalled Bash shell, that I figured it's worth laying out my reasoning.

TL;DR
