Only way I know to remove a file from a commit is by using git commit.

I’m also most comfortable with gitk when reviewing branches

git commit -> git gui

.gitconfig is in an INI-like format though, which is not anything like Tcl.

Also, does anyone use the "standard" git GUI?

>Tcl is also the script language for sqlite.

OK, thanks.

Ever since I 'discovered' Nushell I've noticed a lot of new shells appearing on HN.

The thing I like about Nushell is it does away with some of the things that I found hard with bash, and made data formats a first class citizen (something I enjoyed about powershell).

I think if you like Lisp elvish would be ideal but for me the lack (seeming, I've not done a deep dive on the docs) of built-in data parsing is a no.

Elvish was a bit slow to me, nush is nice but I found out I can do most of the tasks using yq and jc more intuitively.

Funny, until now I always thought that TypeScript is JavaScript with some C# vibes

Is it not usually? I've never had to compile gdb myself to get TUI
srott · 10 months ago
Only seen on some minor embeded systems but it’s not a big deal to compile gdb with tui support enabled.

They had to develop Figmas precursor in order to make that video.

My personal take on this is: "ImageMagick is Sendmail/Bind/OpenSSL class of software - unlimited, constant and guaranted chain of CVE's and other kind of bugs with proven history of that (year by year, often each month of the year) since the dawn of times and most likely with forever continuation of that track record. And no plans of changing trajectory."

If GraphicsMagick is better than that, then it is clearly a benefit of having it around.

srott · a year ago
Yes, but Image magick offers more useful features, I prefer it if safety is not a concern.

Which yq? Last time I checked, there seemed to be a few tools with the same name.

The “go” yq

| yq is a portable command-line YAML, JSON, XML, CSV, TOML and properties processor
