Sicherheitslücken in GitLab: Angreifer können Accounts übernehmen
Patches schließen mehrere Schwachstellen in GitLab Community Edition und Enterprise Edition. Die Entwickler raten zu einem zügigen Update.
Chinwag users! As part of a maybe-ongoing, erratic series of self-promotion posts, here's an outline of one of the many things we do!
Chinwag Code - https://git.chinwag.org - is not just where the source code for our projects lives, but if you're a bit coding-curious yourself, all Chinwag users are welcome to keep their own stuff there as well! Free!
Just use the "Chinwag account" logo button on the sign in page. That's it, you're in. Your stuff will be backed up with the rest of ours!
Enjoy!
Wir haben vor einiger Zeit einen Vortrag gehalten auf einem Workshop, in dessen Nachgang die Vorträge zu Papern ausformuliert werden sollten. Leider haben auch nach 2 Review-Runden die Reviewer auf Änderungen bestanden, die wir für unnötig halten und das Paper daher zurückgezogen.
Jetzt gibt's das einfach auf Zenodo. Falls es also wen interessiert:

Is anyone aware of a `git subtree split` alternative that's faster?
`git subtree split --prefix src/fonts/allsorts -b allsorts-subset-profile` in the Prince repo just took 13 minutes. It also slows down as it runs. It starts off processing about 100 commits per second but by the time it's in the 10,000s it's only managing about 10 per second.
`git-subtree` is a shell script, not sure if that is part of the problem.

It’s 2025 and to my great surprise, I’m about to recommend my customer to stick to #SVN for the versioning of their binary documents (KiCad, FreeCad, LabVIEW…):
• shared storage à la NextCloud is neat, but not enough to keep a proper changelog;
• #Git is not efficient with non-text files, and Git-LFS is a pain in the arse to deal with compared to SVN.
I have just become the old, grumpy guy who’s making a team stick with outdated tools.
Kill me.

Liebe Folglinge,
ich suche leider noch immer nach einem neuen Job als #iOS und/oder #macOS Entwickler. Ich spreche #ObjectiveC, #Swift (auch Server-Side) und #SwiftUI und nutze die ganzen Tools drumherum (#Xcode, #Git, #GitHub, #GitHubActions, #ShellScripting etc.). Ich bringe 30 Jahre Berufserfahrung als Software-Entwickler mit, davon knapp 20 im #Apple Ökosystem.
Am Idealsten waere eine #Festanstellung zu 100% remote. Sollte es im Raum #Bregenz oder #Dornbirn etwas geben, dann auch gerne vor Ort.
Ich danke euch fuers Teilen.

Et poussées directes pour un direct push, c'est pas mal.
Lu dans un article d'informatique traduit de l'anglais : réviseur pour reviewer. J'approuve. (Et ça fait penser à la pièce de théâtre de Gogol.)
Git question: a commit modified a file. Is there a way to access both versions of the file at the same time, without checking out HEAD^, copying the original file to another filename, and going back to HEAD?
No matter if you vibe code or not. Using and understanding #git remains important. Here are three advanced aliases I regularly use: https://levelup.gitconnected.com/3-practical-git-aliases-for-power-users-a42b99cb0d80

Fellow #godot plugins developers, how do you manage versioning of your code ?
I have my plugin code but also a test project using it (and holding it in its "addon" folder). The obvious way would be to version the whole project and make another git sub-repo for the plugin folder itself, but it is cumbersome to manage…
So I was wondering if there was easier known practices.
Forgejo Action Runners with Private HTTPS Certificates
https://blog.hardill.me.uk/2025/06/05/forgejo-action-runners-with-private-https-certificates/
I set up a Forgejo instance a few days ago to have a play, it runs in my Kubernetes cluster and is issued a HTTPS certificate from my Small Step CA via Cert-Manger using ACME.
Forgejo offers basically most of the features of GitHub in a self hosting environment, with git repo, full web UI, package hosting among other things. It can also be setup to mirror public GitHub (and other) repos so […]
As with any command, one of the first things you should do is type
git --help
read what is said about the syntax then type
man git
Git is a tool I like, a lot. Before git, you could do RCS {& some others} which is a totally different tool set.
In this video Linus Torvalds talks about the way he created Git two+ decades ago.
What immediately Springs into view, is the fact that Linus gave control of the git project to someone else, as soon as he could he did not want to stay with the project for too long.
Git was created because of pure necessity; it was vital for kernel revision control
