How did you "commit locally" with Subversion twenty years ago? And if "local commits" were a thing, what was Svk for?


svk is a tool to do exactly this. You can always copy the actual repo, you have read access to it after all. Something like svk vastly simplifies this workflow and can keep your local copy up to date.

Keep in mind that the intended workflow with svn is to perfect a patch locally and commit when you are done. So something like svk is considered a special case, not an integral part of the workflow. git actively encourages you do split your work in separate commits using rebase.

So there is a big difference in intended use, perhaps not as much in technical ability. Linus would likely have gone mad had he forced his workflow on svn.


Scrolling in the webpage crashed my browser (Firefox, ios).


Weird, it seems to work fine for me (Firefox, iOS).


I understand these two formulations to be equivalent. Would you spell out the difference? For me? Thx!


You can charge for the distribution of the software. You just don't have the ability to restrict the distribution downstream.

That's what "must be freely redistributable" means though.

Except it doesn't. Try using

      - run: |

It's built-in in Zsh: The substitution ‘$(cat foo)’ may be replaced by the faster ‘$(<foo)’.

Is that only for command substitution?


What do you mean? It's specifically for $(cat …) / $(< …): the latter is a faster equivalent of the former. Other than that, see my comment about $READNULLCMD.


cat is a verb though


cat x is a subject


Press alt and dot (full stop) to insert last word from the previous command line:

    $ cat file
    $ grep stuff alt-.
Alternatively, make use off the READNULLCMD mechanism in Zsh:

    $ < file
translates to

    $ ${READNULLCMD:-more} < file
Thus you can

    $ < file
then UP (or ctrl-p which I find more ergonomic) and continue with "grep stuff":

    $ < file grep stuff
(Redirections can be anywhere in the command.)

Intel was receiving continuous beatings from AMD (Ryzen/Epyc) a few years before Apple came up with M1. 2016/2017 vs 2020. I don't think Apple and Intel are in much competition: Intel doesn't make laptops and lacked Apple's moat when they did, and Apple doesn't sell (amd64) server CPUs.

Well, there goes the humanely usable phone size, my reason to buy an iPhone.
