Ventures of an ex indie game developer

Bad back, good repo backing

I’ve always gotten along fine with my bodily functions, but lately most of them have been pushed aside by the sitting function, and that’s starting to hurt the others. So I’ll have to take a small break from this project to let the inflammation in my neck heal.

I transitioned to git some 1.5 years ago. Git’s my tit. One week ago we moved over to git in my day-job. Which paid off today, since our business center was offline. With ol’ SVN we couldn’t have done jack, but with git we just continued working as normal (i.e. as “normal” as can get without teh internetz).

To me, git is a great system for techies. The basics are easy to learn and you quickly reap the benefits. And if you dig deeper into the rabbit hole you’ll find a Wonderland of fantastic opportunities to fiddle with your, or someone else’s, repository. I haven’t really managed to trash something seriously yet, but I guess it’s a matter of time.

When I pick up programming again I’ll produce NAT traversal code. I know what you’re thinking. I’m thinking it too. But it’s not going to be that bad. Not for you or your neck anyway.
