In the last few months, I have found myself using the Terminal on my MacOS more and more. I just find it more satisfying to be in more control of what I am doing and it’s definitely faster too (if you know your commands well). And it was this inclination that led me to find […]
Git is my favorite source control tool and I try to use it in pretty much all the projects I work on. Yesterday, I watched the Advanced Git Screencast from PeepCode and like all other screencasts from PeepCode, I liked it a lot and ended up with a much better understanding of Git branching/merging/reflog in […]
