Very basic question to help keep my repo clean.

Installation clustergit

clustergit seems a good candidate

cd ~/Applications
git clone git@github.com:mnagel/clustergit.git
# add export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/Applications/clustergit" to ~.bashrc
source ~.bashrc

or using .local/bin

cd ~/Applications/
git clone git@github.com:castorfou/clustergit.git
cd ~
mkdir -p .local/bin
cd .local/bin/
ln -s ~/Applications/clustergit/clustergit .
source .profile

clustergit status (detailed)

Clean vs On branch main, No Changes

seems related to branch name. If branch is named master, then clean is displayed.

(Mar/25 21) I have just changed clustergit to have main as default branch name instead of master (github having set main as the new standard)

Rename everything from master to main

Git pull, push

I am not sure I will use it. But allows to recursively launch pull commands to update repos (if no local changes)

Rename branches from main to master

Renaming a branch from github website.

Rename branch main to master from github website

Update local clones

git branch -m main master
git fetch origin
git branch -u origin/master master

Rename branches from master to main (I know)

Renaming a branch from github website.

Rename branch master to main from github website

Update local clones

git branch -m master main
git fetch origin
git branch -u origin/main main

RabbitVCS

From this page

Installation

sudo apt install rabbitvcs-nautilus

Result

These overlay icons are not automatically updated (have to hit Ctrl-F5, it is a cache issue?) Which is not a surprise: number of actions are fired based on file modifications, and here status (commited, pushed) is not at all linked to file modifications. The system doesn’t know that overlay icon should be changed because file was not touched.

git-nautilus-icons

Just to check if it works better than RabbitVCS regarding overlay icon cache issue.

No I didn’t manage to make it work. Back to RabbitVCS.

Activate git with GlobalProtect

move from ssh to https, keeping password

$ git remote -v
origin  git@github.com:castorfou/guillaume_blog.git (fetch)
origin  git@github.com:castorfou/guillaume_blog.git (push)

move to https://github.com/castorfou/guillaume_blog.git

git remote set-url origin https://github.com/castorfou/guillaume_blog.git
  • Make Git store the username and password and it will never ask for them.
git config --global credential.helper store
  • Save the username and password for a session (cache it);
git config --global credential.helper cache

and to activate trace

$ GIT_TRACE_PACKET=1 GIT_TRACE=1 GIT_CURL_VERBOSE=1 git fetch

we can enrich certificates with Global Protect CA

~/anaconda3/ssl$ sudo cp certPG.pem /etc/ssl/certs/

Add a ca-certificate in ubuntu

  1. Go to /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/
  2. Create a new folder, i.e. sudo mkdir school
  3. Copy the . crt file into the school folder.
  4. Make sure the permissions are OK (755 for the folder, 644 for the file)
  5. Run sudo update-ca-certificates

We should see effects in /etc/ssl/certs

/etc/ssl/certs$ ll -tr

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     86 mars  24 10:02  cert_M_X5C_sase-net-sslfwd-trust-ca.pem -> /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/globalprotect/cert_M_X5C_sase-net-sslfwd-trust-ca.crt
