TIL that git can automatically stash for you when rebasing.

The magic command is:

git config --global rebase.autoStash true

In whichever text editor you use, please ensure that you enable the option saves a new line to the end of every file.

It makes text files that much easier to work with on the command line.

In VSCode, it's the "Files: Insert Final Newline" setting. In JetBrains editors, it's "Ensure every saved file ends with a line break"

Finally created the #curl script I should have created at the start!

Lazy me has been finally been bitten enough times using A.N.Other HTTP client, that I’ve now done it properly in bash using curl.

Top tip: -b "cookies.txt" -c "cookies.txt" is super helpful for holding the session between calls. Shout out to @lornajane for this as I always have to look this up on her site!

I'm a huge fan of GitHub Actions and use it for all sorts of things, including compiling each new release of rodeo and adding the binaries to the GitHub Release. I wrote up what I do here: https://akrabat.com/using-github-actions-to-add-go-binaries-to-a-release/

I've just cut a release of SlimPHP's Twig-View component to allow for either psr/http-message 1.1 or 2.0.

This minor change that makes Twig-View easier to use with other package that use php/http-message and need the later version. #slimphp #php
