OK, Play appears to be pretty strict about xrefs for some reason. I'll look into it. You can track the issue here: https://github.com/progit/progit2/issues/111

While I'm generally uninterested in "git vs hg" these days, I am interested in this Windows question. Though I don't use Windows, I'm of the impression that Git is as solid on Windows today as Hg (or any other comma

lol, gitcasts, nice! I totally forgot about these. Man, I should probably redo them, I liked that series.

Yup, that's the cover that Apress made and we (lol) screenshot from Amazon. I was thinking of Photoshopping it out, but decided to just wait until they fixed it and do another screenshot.

There is a simple build process using asciidoctor-pdf and asciidoctor-epub that can also create all 3 formats locally. The Atlas ones are just a little more professional looking, but the asciidoctor chain is still really great. https:&#x2F

This is interesting, I've never used Google Play Books. Is there an actual error message that you could put into our issues? The file is actually generated with O'Reillys Atlas platform, not Apress, so they would be interested in

I'm planning to write all of this up soon, but there are a few really interesting things about the second edition. For one, everything was changed from Markdown to Asciidoc and the entire book can now be generated in multiple formats i

I believe I've actually offered to do this, but they haven't taken me up on it. I'm almost positive that I actually got a domain transfer code for it once but it was never transferred (I could be misremembering that though).

Ugh, yeah, this is complex. The second edition isn't going to be properly out for probably months. While it's online now and still undergoing some copy and technical editing, I'm not sure that sending you to the Amazon page f

I do actually cover this in the preface: https://github.com/progit/progit2/blob/master/book/preface.a... The conflict of interest does bother me, so I did try to be as clear as I could about it and

I may be amazingly biased given that I work for GitHub, but a lot of these issues are solved by using the Notifications section of GitHub ( https://github.com/notifications ). Of the hundreds of repositories we have going int

Actually, it's better to use '.patch' as we format that output specifically for 'am'. The '.diff' extension is for GNU patch or 'git apply'. GitHub pull requests are made to be compatible with 'git am' on the command line and is documented

I'm curious how you think it's possible for a structure like this to emerge after some level of success? You think that any company sets up a traditional management structure, accomplishes success and then fires all the managers and tells

It would be difficult for me to disagree more strongly with this article. To say that Zach is somehow lazy because he used a swear word is missing the forest for the trees. I have probably attended more than 50 conferences in the last few

it depends. when staging is in a good state we'll simply ask if anyone is using it. you can see a few deployments to staging in that screenshot i posted i believe. however, if the developer judges that a ci pass is good enough, a deploym

wrt that article, we don't run into these issues i think largely because we do something that seems straightforward to me that is for some reason not addressed in that article (unless i'm reading it wrong) which is to reintegrate (merge) fr

Actually, I regularly get in around 6, take a long lunch to hang out with my family and then leave around 4. I think a couple of things help the culture of this at GitHub - one being that all of the directors keep wildly different hours, wh

I'll probably write a blog post laying this out a bit more clearly, but responding to a few of the comments here: * I don't think 'rock star' programmers is important. I think that most programmers got into the game because they love progr

technically, it's 1.6.6 and above, just to be pedantic, but quite a number of people are at that now, it's nearly a year old now.

That was entirely my fault. I was supposed to speak there and host a drinkup but I got a bit overloaded and wasn't able to make it. GitHub was a sponsor of the conference and would like to do more in Mexico in the future. Next time I'll a
