How I stopped missing Darcs and started loving Git
About three years ago, I switched to Darcs as my primary source-code management system. It was simple, intuitive, and powerful, and it made managing my projects more fun and less frustrating than any centralized VCS ever had. That it was written in Haskell, one of my favorite programming languages, made it even better. I was hooked. Since then, the distributed SCM landscape has changed. When I started working for a new company recently, I had to consider whether to advocate Darcs or something else. After researching and playing around with Git and Mercurial, I settled on Git. Missing Darcs When I started using Git on real projects, the one thing I really missed was the ability to easily amend earlier patches, something Darcs made trivial. Checkout copy of upstream code base.Implement feature X.Commit.Implement independent feature Y.Commit.Implement independent feature Z.Commit.Push new features back upstream. That’s it. Learning to love Git The git rebase —interactive command is powerful.

There are about 937 different ways to send Email with Perl. shelling out to /usr/sbin/sendmail writing my own in-house modules using Net::SMTP directly when the application did not need to send attachments using MIME::Lite when I did need to include attachments I recently re-evaluated how I send Email and I've fully switched to using MIME::Lite::TT::HTML, in my opinion this is the best all around Email tool available from CPAN today. It allows you to:

Collaborative Github Workflow - eqqon
From eqqon Typical distributed setup of git repositories for collaboration on a github hosted project. The dots are repositories, the lines between them indicate that one repository has been cloned from another. The forks are initially created by cloning from the main repository and the private repos are clones from the public ones on github. Collaboration on Github is not complicated but also not intuitively clear for beginners because not all parts of the workflow are incorporated into the Github user interface. The example This description uses the project GitSharp as example. The main repository also called the upstream branch is henon/GitSharp. Contributor's Workflow Getting Started Overview Fork Install tools like git itself (if not yet done) Clone Start coding ;) Commit early and commit often Ignore the Github Fork Queue Fork Say you want to start contributing to a project on github. Install Git Tools (Windows) Clone git clone git@github.com:YOURNAME/GitSharp.git Start Coding!
