By default Git uses less as a pager. That is very cool because to look at logs you no longer have to pipe the output to less yourself. But something didn’t work very well for me until I finally couldn’t take it anymore. The problem was that for some reason my Git output in less is displaying weird chars that looks like ESC at beginning of lines. I found the culprit to be one of my env variable LESS=-i, which makes search in less case-insensitive. It’s all good after it’s taken out :)

I am interested in wiki. So when I saw the new Merb wiki I naturally wanted to check it out. One problem, it’s on github and I don’t have git yet….

So I finally got off my lazy butt and installed git. The process was painless. Now I am all gitified to version 1.5.5. Yeeeha gitty up~~

I actually looked to get started git a while ago. Even got myself a github repos but I couldn’t be bothered to install git back then.

Fast forward to now, it is still not as easy as I would like but I can deal with it.

The main reason I want to get git is to make it easier to stay on edge rails.

I haven’t felt that I really need distributed SCM. With no experiences with using DSCM I am not ruling it out. Just need to find time to get to try it out.
