GP wasn't asking about the files being immutable, whatever a mutable file would mean. They were asking about the releases. I'm curious too. The way it's done with rubygems, if you messed something up with the gem (pushed secr

Such are anomalies. Do you know of a specific US-owned camp in Mexico?

by jolmg 3mo ago
Outside of embassies, the US wouldn't have a place to set up government facilities in someone else's country. Deportees are handed to the receiving country's authorities at most. ICE "camps" (detention facilities) a

Why would there be an ICE camp in Mexico? Maybe you read "New Mexico", the US state.

Such a generic word. I imagine there are tons of CLI utilities out there with a --passkey option that refer to simply files with a key inside. Kind of crazy that it's being used to mean specifically devices that implement a specific pr

Is "passkey" only supposed to mean devices that implement specifically U2F, WebAuthn, etc.? I would have thought TOTP and challenge-response hardware tokens to count, including cellphones with apps that implement such. As to >

I mean, that's a positive feedback loop. It takes longer to review, because they're expecting them to be big. Big PRs/MRs are left there until there's a big enough free time block to tackle and discuss. If the PRs are sm

Right, maybe a better way to get what they're going for would be git checkout @~ ^tests where ^tests is zsh's way of saying * except for tests. So you get the tests/ of the current commit and the code of the prior.

Maybe the issue is they think of a PR as an expensive thing. Would be best if they could just do the small thing and make a PR of that from the get-go. If they want to base future changes on the ones they just did, they can just create a ne

Huh.. That's a shame :(. Maybe what it refers to is if you had a branch on B rather than D, it might update that. EDIT: Yeah, this seems to be it. `git branch b` on b, then `git rebase -i --update-ref @~3` from main caused branch ref `

One can also use that, or just `git log -n1` and taking note of the commit hash. So many options.
