09:24 @durin42 huh, a new clone did grab everything. The initial clone grabbed just trunk, even though I didn't specify. #
09:25 @durin42 Might have been because everything else was empty because it was a new project. Thanks for the help. #

09:42 Finally found the right php.ini settings so I can run our dev server code in MAMP. No more need to rely on a network connection. #
10:41 @uconntam Unfortunately, I'm not much of a web dev (mostly iPhone & Mac), so it took some time to find the right settings for our code #
12:41 Starting to get used to hg. I'm going to give it at least a week, but there's a good chance I may not be going back to git. #
12:45 And did I mention that I really like the fact that BitBucket lets you have a public issue tracker on a private repo? #
12:46 Now if only their public wiki on a private repo would actually work... #
20:11 one thing I already like about hg versus git: if one extension doesn't fit your workflow, there's probably another that does #
20:15 for example: I can't get hgsubversion to grab anything other than trunk, the hgsvn scripts seem to have me covered there. #

09:39 @durin42 are there any good hg/hgsubversion tutorials for people who are git-damaged? Looks like I'd like it better after I got used to it. #
09:45 @pilky I can't recommend them enough. Been a customer for over a year and a half, and only had one smallish glitch & great support. #
11:31 @durin42 cool. Thanks. I'll take a look at those. #

11:30 I think my distaste for hg is mostly due to almost 2 years of git usage having ruined me for any other DVCS. #
11:32 The hg workflow is almost too close to git's. I think if the differences were bigger, the ingrained git stuff wouldn't get in the way #

11:11 @danielpunkass may have been the one to get me started looking a hg, but BitBucket may be what convinces me to stay with it. #
13:07 I thought coding by the fire Panera's was a good idea. Starting to get a little warm though, and there's no place to move to now. #
14:55 OK, so maybe I'm staying with git. I'm spending way too much time looking at plugins that make hg work like git already does. #
14:57 And I still think I like git-svn better than hgsubversion. Although it is pretty slick. #
14:59 and except for the 1 free private repo, I found all the features I liked in BitBucket over on @github too. #
19:07 @durin42 I think it's more git's squashed merges followed by a dcommit than anything to do with hgsubversion. Doesn't look like hg does that #
19:09 @durin42 I like being able to do lots of small commits locally, and bundle them up for svn. That seems to fit how my coworkers use svn best #
19:25 @durin42 and I've really come to rely on git's 2 stage commit process. But that's a shortcoming of hg versus git #
19:31 Perl, Objective-C, Ruby, & a little PHP #code2009 #
22:08 got a good start tonight on a ruby script to create github issues from an email inbox #

10:57 Man it's weird to be 500 mi from the office and still have a commute to work. Nothing like having to drive 20 minutes to get cell & WiFi #
10:58 The in-laws have WiFi, but I don't really want to have to tie up their phone when I'm on a call with the office. #
11:01 @ahemphill I thought about it, but don't really want to pay for the Skype-Out minutes, and work is oddly anti-skype #
18:49 @danielpunkass how's the SVN integration? git-svn is the only thing keeping me from looking elsewhere. All our work stuff is in svn. #

11:46 I love people who have no idea what an ignore file is for version control, and you end up with all kinds of build noise in your repo #

12:54 Work got me a 15" MacBook Pro. Coming from a 13", I don't know what to do with all this space. I still want a 17" when I get my own though. #
12:54 But what a beautiful screen this thing has though. #
13:12 @CocoaGeek I'm not too worried about that, I've got a laptop backpack that would fit a 17" fine & carries my 13" + 3 textbooks fine #
13:13 @CocoaGeek You'd be surprised how much a good backpack with hip & chest straps helps distribute weight. Almost don't notice it. #
13:14 @CocoaGeek And yes, I've been thinking about this for a while, just haven't been able to afford a 17" yet. #
13:15 @CocoaGeek Yeah, but I also can't remember the last time I flew anywhere. :-D #
13:18 @ahemphill Who knows, I may end up changing my mind after a few months w/a 15", but my laptop is my primary machine. Hence the wish for a 17 #
13:18 @ahemphill Otherwise, I agree, the 13" is a nice form factor. Closest thing to a netbook I think I'd ever want. #
18:29 On our way to PA to visit family for the holliday. Gonna be a long 7ish hour drive. Can't wait to see them though. Been far too long. #fb #

08:53 how on earth did I manage to not notice the play/pause/skip keys right next to the volume controls on the F-keys on my MacBook for so long? #
11:32 Now that I've figured out how to make git use graphical merge and diff tools, I figure I'll give Dterm and Changes.app another shot #
11:33 That, and I've finally got a job coding on a Mac, instead of a Windows box. Time to expand my toolbox a little #
12:26 @mzarra Did you ever get code sense working right again? Xcode's giving me fits about it now too. Has been for a day or two. #
12:32 It's going to take some time to get comfortable with not having a dedicated terminal open, but I think I'm really going to like DTerm. #
12:47 OK, first DTerm issue: Does anyone know if it can be made to work with Git's bash autocompletion? #
13:08 @mzarra Awesome! That did it. Thanks a lot! #
