I'm not too confident about maintaining my own git forge full time and using it for actions and all the other complicated netlify stuff, but I decided to at least self-host forgejo to backup my code from github. The mirror function makes it really easy to keep them synced.

Several years in the making, GitLab is now very actively implementing #ActivityPub! 🙌

https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/11247

The end-goal is to support AP for merge requests (aka pull requests), meaning git.alice.dev can send a merge request to gitlab.com/Bob/project.git

First bite-sized todo on the implementation path there is ‘subscribe to project releases’.

Smart move by #GitLab; through ActivityPub they’re getting a distributed version of GitHub’s social layer.

Turns out you can't do mass #gitea workflow clean up 🙄

Here's a script to do API calls for all your repos and keep the instance lean:

@electret great, it get's never boring in the #HomeLab right :) I used to have a simple list with things I plan to do in #docmost but nowadays started to use Issues in #forgejo. So #forgejo is now really the single source of truth in the homelab with all the glory #git delivers.

😸😸😸 Woohoo! My new book, Boost Your GitHub DX, is out now! 😸😸😸

It’s about using GitHub more effectively, touring you through the fundamental features with my experience-based commentary. It covers settings, keyboard shortcuts, hidden features, syntax, techniques, CLI commands, and even improving your writing.

Check out the release post for more info and a link to the free sample:

"Torvalds discusses with remarkable openness the personality traits that prompted his unique philosophy of work, engineering and life. "I am not a visionary, I'm an engineer," Torvalds says. "I'm perfectly happy with all the people who are walking around and just staring at the clouds ... but I'm looking at the ground, and I want to fix the pothole that's right in front of me before I fall in."

Can I have some recommendations for the privacy respecting web-based platform for version control and repository management? Ditching Github once for all

#programming #git #versioncontrol #privacy

I recently wrote a #blog article about multitasking with #git. Did you already know about the #worktree feature?

🎉 Wahoo, I updated my Git book!

This is a free update for all readers, as always, and a good reason to become one if you’re not.

There’s a new chapter, “init and clone”, many extra sections, and it’s updated for the latest Git. 28 new pages for a total of 391!

#Git

https://adamj.eu/tech/2025/01/28/bygdx-second-update/

Finally reviewed LazyGit!
Amazing #dev & #devops tool for #git
https://jelloeater.me/review/lazygit/

Pretty great for remote-specific 🔏 GPG #git commit signing configuration, too!

#gpg #pgp

✨ TIL ✨:

You can have #git auto-pick `user.name` and `user.email` based on repository remotes' URLs.

Next at #WorkshopsForUkraine: #VersionControl with #Git taught by Olexandr Konovalov (St Andrews), Thursday March 28th, 6 pm CET. Register or sponsor a place for a student by donating to support #Ukraine. You can donate to support Ukraine and get recordings and all of the materials of this and all the other previous workshops.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but forking a #git repo does *not* "protect you from damaging upstream changes." It actually makes you more vulnerable because two years later, those 12,927 upstream commits contain a whole slew of solutions to bugs you had to fix on your own and CVEs that you didn't even know existed.

Unless you're forking to contribute a fix upstream, you should always assume that "fork" actually means "fork and assume maintenance burden."

For everyone wanting to test out OS/1337 there's good news:

You can just clone the #git repo or pull it as #zip:
https://github.com/OS-1337/OS1337

and then just run ./scripts/build.sh

and within a few mins it'll spit out a bootable #1440kB image in /build/0.CORE/ to put on a 3,5" FDD or run in a VM [may it be #QEMU or #VirtualBox]...

Thanks to @SweetAIBelle for the generous contributions!

My #HomeServer feels lonely without users!

You can contact me to get a FREE ssh account + email. Just send you ssh pubkey and preferred username!

The server runs #Gentoo, and you can bootstrap a Gentoo Prefix to have more control over the software.

Additional services in the family available to YOU:

• #Nextcloud platform @ https://our.sysrq.in
• #Git hosting @ https://git.sysrq.in
• #Bugzilla issue tracker @ https://bugs.sysrq.in
• #IRC server @ irc.sysrq.in
• #Matrix homeserver (Conduit)
• #Web and #Gemini hosting
• Virtual private network (Wireguard)

Expected dowtime is at least one day a month. Don't use my services for anything serious.

4️⃣ Git, PGP and Blockchain: A comparison
Most people, when they want #Blockchain, they are only interested in what #Git version control and #Timestamping actually deliver. Often, they do not even want immutability, but just transparency about the changes.

(And with that, you already know most of the article's content. But feel free if you want to know more in-depth.)

Here's the English re-recording of my workshop kickoff talk about @joeyh@hachyderm.io 's Git Annex, an awesome tool to sync, manage and archive files based on git.

The original talk was in German and I got requests to translate it to English, so here it is! 🥳

I also mention @datalad and @distribits at the end. 😃

#git #gitAnnex #Tübix2023

Every time I figure out how to do something in #Git

I'm finally writing an #introduction toot LOL.

I'm "JJGadgets" online, you can call me JJ, everyone does.

My life is #tech, nothing brings me more joy and zen than sitting in front of my screens. Maybe except for Japanese food.

I use and prefer #linux for both server and desktop use, despite its flaws. I live in the #commandline. Been that way since I first jailbroke on iOS 5 and installed MobileTerminal.

I study #infosec but textbooks and lessons don't even come close to doing justice to what #infosec is all about. I like to think that I live and strive to live the infosec life, including my mindset. (After all, that's why @truxnell started calling me the "tinfoil hat sensei" LOL)

I do #Kubernetes @ Home, and maintain my cluster state in #git then apply it with tools like #FluxCD. My #homelab repo can be found at https://biohazard.jjgadgets.tech (will always 301 redirect to my latest Git remote of choice, in the event it changes). I think using #GitOps/IaC to declare desired security-related state (policies, rules etc) makes managing security a lot easier.

I try to follow "Principle of Least Privilege" for my homelab, and especially for Kubernetes security, using tools such as network policies (#netpols), policy engines, secrets management, identity management, strong #authentication, and access control. For example, my homelab Kubernetes cluster heavily uses netpols everywhere to default-deny and only allow the necessary network traffic for any given app to work.

I am also very interested in strong authentication methods such as #passwordless #fido2 / #webauthn (#yubikey and #passkeys) and where possible, I only enroll FIDO2 MFA, and choose the passwordless variant if available.

I try my best to use privacy-respecting software where possible, as I believe in maintaining transparency and control over the #privacy of people, regardless of online or offline.

I also believe in #opensource, too many times we've been shown the consequences of relying on closed source software, so where possible I always prefer open source.

Outside of the screen, admittedly I'm terrible at life stuff, and it's very hard for me to be interested in much of anything other than stuff on or related to a screen/device (I basically only talk tech stuff LOL). I'm working on changing that in the event I burnout hard again (though I still haven't found a non-tech interest yet, as of writing). I've burnt out multiple times despite still being a student, and thus I now (try to) take as much necessary measures as I can to avoid over-working, over-stressing or over-exerting myself.

That's about it, let's chat (or toot?)!

Creating #games with less impact on the #environment is simple, but it can be a challenge to find #resources to get started.

For this reason, I've taken the liberty of starting a curated list of useful resources for video #game #developers to create more #sustainable games: https://codeberg.org/kreateer/sustainable-games-toolkit

Furthermore, anyone is welcome to contribute - just fork the repo. and make a pull request!

#introduction

Hi folks, I really enjoy Mastodon. It does remind me of the olden days of #irc and the #BBS era (in a good way).

I teach computer engineering technology at the University of Kentucky. I'm originally from #Germany.

My main interests here:

#technology
#softwareEngineering
#git
#linux
#unix
#science
#engineering
#astronomy
#audioEngineering
#electromagnetics
#ieee
#hamRadio

#kentucky
#ruhrgebiet
#ostfriesland
#bochum

#hbcu
#ethics
#firstgen

#introduction I'm a #guitar playing techie that writes a lot of #terraform these days. I'm a well versed daily user of #aws, #linux, #git, #github, #nvim, #zsh.

I also use #opnsense and #mythtv at home, love playing #overwatch.

I have a family with a lot of #dogs.

Recurring offer reminder: I'll help / mentor / teach / tutor / troubleshoot with anyone who wants to learn git for basic version control, collaboration, managing personal projects, or for a day job. I'll work to connect people with mentors other than me if they prefer - no need to explain why.

Same for bash, command line tools, and so on.

I want using & contributing to FS/OSS to be easier for way more people.

Boosts appreciated!!
