Gistory is a new git client we’ve been working on at DrewCrawfordApps. But it’s like no other git client you’ve seen before. The first git client with absolutely zero buttons. Augments, not replaces, the command line tools. Written by hardcore git users who hate GUI “clients”. git is to Gistory like vi is to vim, […]
I “ported” thorncp’s fsck to objective-C this week. fsck lets you tell the compiler how you really feel. Disclaimer: Although fully functional, this is a joke / prank project. Do not actually use it in production. Examples Convenience constructors got you down? Just Tired of boxing primitive types? Show the compiler who’s boss! Keep forgetting […]
