East Devon

We went down to Seaton Hole for the Autumn half-term week. The weather was unseasonably warm and sunny, but I'm not complaining!

Here are some photos from the beautiful first morning we were there.

All but the last one were taken with the Nikon D700 + Voigtlander 20mm Pancake, which makes a nice, relatively compact, travel setup.

Merging Git Repositories

No project of significant size that I've ever seen has retained its initial structure. Restructuring projects is a fact of life, but unfortunately Git doesn't make it easy. Fundamentally this stems from the way Git works, treating changes as a succession of snapshots and not storing any other metadata. Of course this is part of what makes Git fast and efficient, but at the expense of making some common operations more difficult for users. Git really is a perfect 21st century illustration of the classic  "Worse Is Better"  paradigm of successful software 😀 Previously I discussed how to split a Git project apart into separate repositories . Now I'm going to discuss how to do the opposite and merge separate repositories into one. On the face of it, this would seem a simpler task as Git has powerful support for merging... Let's take the opposite example to my splitting apart article - say you have a main Git repo (ProjA) and a second repo (ProjB) in...

Indian Summer Continues

The unseasonably warm weather continues with wildlife aplenty. I managed to get a little bit closer to one of the SparrowHawks that lives around here: Soaring SparrowHawk Nikon D300s, 70-200 f/2.8G VR II and TC-1.4E II converter. Still not close enough to get a decent shot though! A Grey Heron also flew over while I was watching out for the SparrowHawk. St Albans must be one of the best places in Britain to see Herons, as they are a common sight in the fields. Never mind the large breeding colony in Verulamium Park.
