gource: OpenGL-based 3D visualisation tool for source control repositories

milton — Fri, 28 May 2010 14:42:04 +0000

Too much fun the tool I’ve came to know through my friend Adenilson’s blog. In a glance one can explore effort put into a project in a way much better than any other command-line or graphical application known.

The only boring thing is to use it in my machine, a hp pavilion dv4-2167sb, which, AFAIK, still lacks a good graphical acceleration support.

I’ve made a very basic debian package (using checkinstall) for people too lazy to compile/install by themselves.

Enjoy it and have fun!

Old School Techniques

Talking about old times stuff at the breakfast, it was so fortunate that I’ve already read a post about this issue earlier today.

Old-school programming techniques you probably don’t miss

I’m not a punch card time guy, but concerns like memory footprint size, code running faster and thread limitations still go around my mind nowadays.

Don’t forget to take a look at the comments section for more funny and informative stories.

Git References’ Pointers

Earlier this year I’ve spent some time gathering references to study Git, the version control system everybody seems to love nowadays.

Thankfully, someone took the time to bind several useful links in one central webpage. If you wanna start studying Git, that’s the place to start. Kudos for such practical people (more specifically Scott Charcon and Petr Baudis).

Just for reference, I’ll paste below the stuff I had.
