Dissecting part of a subversion repo to git

Well, that was pretty easy to figure out. As per my last post, I was going to try to break out the AIDE+gpg part of the Annvix tools subversion repo to be it’s own git repo. It was scary simple. First, the location of AIDE+gpg in the subversion repo was “tools/AIDE+gpg” and it had one [...]

Figuring this git thing out

I’m a little old-school in that I like subversion. I’ve used subversion for years, and have had it as a big part of my workflow for a really really long time. Unfortunately, there’s this git thing popping up all over the place and I’m starting to feel dated. (It’s bad enough that my daughter turned [...]

Kerberos on OS X 10.7 (Lion)

So I had upgraded my wife’s MacBook to Lion and discovered that, once again, Apple screwed around with Kerberos. This seems to be a recurring theme (and not a good one). After quite a bit of fighting and figuring, a few things have been sorted out. Once I’ve got it completely figured out, I’ll document [...]

Fedora 15 upgrade

So I upgraded my Fedora 14 workstation to Fedora 15 last night using the yum update method (I’ve used preupgrade a few times and it’s worked on some and botched on others (mostly due to not enough space on /boot)). Since with other distros I’ve either used apt to do a dist-ugprade or the urpmi [...]
