madduck's git repository

Every one of the projects in this repository is available at the canonical URL git://git.madduck.net/madduck/pub/<projectpath> — see each project's metadata for the exact URL.

All patches and comments are welcome. Please squash your changes to logical commits before using git-format-patch and git-send-email to patches@git.madduck.net. If you'd read over the Git project's submission guidelines and adhered to them, I'd be especially grateful.

SSH access, as well as push access can be individually arranged.

If you use my repositories frequently, consider adding the following snippet to ~/.gitconfig and using the third clone URL listed for each project:

[url "git://git.madduck.net/madduck/"]

7 mr is intended to be very self-contained, since it might be useful to check
8 it into ~/bin when keeping your home in version control. It has no
9 dependencies aside from basic perl. (The included webcheckout command has
10 more dependencies, specifically the LWP::Simple and HTML::Parser CPAN
11 modules, and optionally the URI module.)
12
13 To install mr, just copy mr into your PATH somewhere.
14
15 To get started using mr, perhaps you already have some checked out
16 repositories. Go into each one and run "mr register". Now mr has
17 a list of them in ~/.mrconfig, which you can edit later to tune its
18 operation.
19
20 Suppose you've cd'd to ~/src, and it has many repositories under it.
21 To update them all, run "mr update". To commit any pending changes in
22 each, run "mr commit". To check the status of each, you could run
23 "mr status".

25 For further details, and lots of configuration options, see the mr(1) man
26 page.
