github.com/...3362 vagrant paironaut virtualbox
shared by David Corking on 05 Apr 14 - No Cached
  • I keep my local repos in a Dropbox folder so I can switch between my desktop and laptop seamlessly and still have the current state of everything be synced, including changes that haven't been committed yet.
  • 1. vagrant halt to shutdown machines 2. added "export VAGRANT_DOTFILE_PATH=.vagrant-laptop" to ~/.bashrc 3. open new terminals to inherit the new env var 4. move .vagrant to .vagrant-laptop 5. vagrant up -- it works! 6. change "/.vagrant" to "/.vagrant*" in my .gitignore

    This is almost perfect!  For me, on Debian 7.1, Remi's code needed a small tweak. I put backticks around `whoam`i It allows me to use git push/pull after I have disconnected and reconnected to a screen session. SSH_AUTH_SOCK=$(find /tmp/ssh-* -user `whoami` -name agent\* -printf '%T@ %p\n' 2>/dev/null | sort -k 1nr | sed 's/^[^ ]* //' | head -n 1)

      Might be useful to get into the habit of using logs for later troubleshooting.
  • –size-only Modifies rsync’s “quick check” algorithm for finding files that need to be transferred, changing it from the default of transferring files with either a changed size or a changed last-modified time to just looking for files that have changed in size

      Sounds like webdav clocks gets sufficiently out of sync with the local machine to cause trouble with rsync. I wonder if it leads to unnecessary download of entire files. Does this mean that unison won't work on webdav drives?

    Nice tips for doing small backups with rsync

    'The house that tweets' This 2 minute video interview with Andy Stanford-Clark is much more entertaining than the YouTube interview I bookmarked earlier. Lots of action shots of home telemetry, Andy's Java midlet on his phone, and what I think is a GNOME desktop showing his home's web interface.

      So, Etoile is more than just a window manager, it is a compiler project with an alternative to the NeXT/Apple model of software development.
