20.10.2008 Bugzilla Utility buglist.py

20.10.2008 – 13:10

Managing bug lists has become an ubiquitous task when dealing with the GNOME or Nokia bugzillas. At some point I became fed up with the involved cut and pasting, searching and sorting, so I cooked up a small command line utility to construct bug list URLs and format bug list summaries in text form. Here’s [...]

30.10.2007 YummyYummySourceControl Version 0.9

30.10.2007 – 10:54

A couple people have reported minor and major bugs in the last yyhelp version, particularly after yycommit got reimplemented to operate on top of git-commit(1) instead of cg-commit(1). Besides some others, this new release fixes all known yycommit issues and also (re-)introduces some new features: yyhelp (v0.9)

Overview of Changes in YummyYummySourceControl-0.9:

13.10.2007 Yummy-Yummy Porcelain Version 0.8

13.10.2007 – 23:02

Here is a new release of YummyYummySourceControl, a shallow porcelain script around common git(7) command variants: yyhelp (v0.8)
This version supports a new command to grep and match an extended regular expression on the full project history by invoking git-grep(1) on all existing commits, displaying matches by commit hash and file name. Also, a CVS/SVN/Cogito [...]

19.09.2007 Yummy-Yummy git-svn

19.09.2007 – 14:30

I’ve had to add another bit to yyhelp to make my everyday coding more convenient, so it got support for git-svn(1). The yypull and yypushpull commands will now detect a git(7) repository set up with git-svn, and unless the repository also has a regular git upstream, pulling and pushing will be carried out via [...]

The YummyYummySourceControl script got a few buglet fixups during the last days, so I’ve put up version 0.5b: yyhelp.
Here’s the obligatory list of changes since the last version:

Overview of Changes in YummyYummySourceControl-0.5b:

29.08.2007 Yummy-Yummy Again

29.08.2007 – 15:58

I’ve put up a new release of the slightly renamed YummyYummySourceControl script here: yyhelp (0.5). The script still depends on cogito(7) for the implementation of yycommit, but other such dependencies have been removed at this point so it’ll eventually depend on Git(7) only. Following is a sum up of the changes between the [...]

13.07.2007 Switch On Strings In C And C++

14.07.2007 – 11:46

For Rapicorn i need a simple and nicely readable way to special case code on various strings, which isn’t a problem in most scripting languages but is not provided by C/C++. Switching on strings turns out to be a widely investigated topic: SOS (agay), TheScript, JavaBug (CNFW), CodeGuru, CLC-FAQ and google has lots more. [...]

30.06.2007 – 04:51

Starting with the discontinuation of cogito, i began to wonder about my future git usage patterns. On the one hand, i have become quite used to the convenience of some of the cogito commands, on the other hand i found myself using or looking up git commands every other day. Since the discontinuation, cogito [...]

More hacking on diary-publish.py, the command line web blogger script. Since http://blogs.gnome.org/timj is currently down due to the gnome server move, i added a simple html writer to it that allowes previewing of the marked up diary with an html browser before posting them.

Have been hacking on the command line web blogger today and learned python on the way, so can you read this? Posting works already, q.e.d. However, NewsBruiser is giving me a hard time with not accepting editPost() requests. So in effect, i’ll not be able to update this entry later on which sucks.
