Re:Git-Stats – A local GitHub-like contributions calendar on Monday February 16, 2015 @12:24PM (#9057952)
Added an option to view stats from all branches ( git-cal --all ), but that'll be slower for large repositories

Yes, git-cal excludes merge commits.

I agree with Paul Graham on this one. "Has any other company grown to Google's size and remained as benevolent? (Not saying they're perfect, just the best that big.)" (https://twitter.com/paulg/status/495948643149426688) I'll stick with Chrome for now as I find it slightly better than firefox.

I have

for cmd in $(compgen -c); do if [[ $cmd =~ ^[0-9a-zA-Z]+$ ]]; then eval "alias $cmd?='man $cmd'"; fi; done

in my .bashrc to alias command?=man command, saves some typing to get to man pages ( which I do very often )

bash alternate to oh-my-sh : https://github.com/revans/bash-it. https://github.com/mathiasbynens/dotfiles has a pretty good collection of dotfiles repos mentioned in its readme.md. There are few more at http://dotfiles.github.io/

Re:Bad Indian Programmers on Monday October 07, 2013 @12:39PM (#6509404)
I agree with all the heuristics mentioned except the one about English grammar. Though most people outside the major cities are educated in English medium, it is very common to them graduate without ever having an actual communication in English. I met a lot of Indians who are not very good with respect to grammar but are amazing programmers with enough communication skills to get the job done.
Re:Git-cal - GitHub Activity Calendar for your Terminal on Wednesday September 25, 2013 @07:06PM (#6447909)
It is now. Added --github | gh option to pull public contributions data from github
Re:Git-cal - GitHub Activity Calendar for your Terminal on Wednesday September 25, 2013 @07:07AM (#6443769)
Yes, this change was reverted. + Now there is --ascii option to view the graph with some ascii characters instead of ANSI colors
Re:Git-cal - GitHub Activity Calendar for your Terminal on Wednesday September 25, 2013 @07:06AM (#6443763)
Yes, the title is slightly misleading and different from the project title "github like contributions calendar on terminal". Adding github support (just to view the same graph on terminal rather than firing the web page for it) is one of the suggestions and is in TODO list.

Thank you. https://github.com/k4rthik/git-cal/commit/2c6b50b57fa818d943... should solve it partially (exit(1) if tput colors < 256)
