notes for setting up a remote git repo (ssh transport)

on the main server create the directory and initialize a bare repo on the server.

% mkdir path_to_repo
% cd path_to_repo
% git --bare init

from the local machine with your content/code, add the remote origin and push your code to the repo.

% cd path_to_local_source
% git remote add origin ssh://hostname/path_to_repo
% git push origin master

share it or get it from another location …

% git clone ssh://hostname/path_to_repo

assumes that the person has an account on the host with the appropriate permissions to modify or read the repo contents.

pull changes from the server to pick up the latest …

% git pull origin master

snow scraper fail

the scraper in the scion gave up the ghost the other day. as a minnesotan, i’m more than a little picky about my scrapers. they’re critical tools. period.

most folks don’t appreciate the utility of the teeth on the back side of a well made scraper. they’re used to score deep ice or buildup and make use of the larger scraper blade more efficient. the alternative is to use the primary blade of the scraper to wedge through the build-up. a tedious endeavor.

the designers of this scraper clearly didn’t have an appreciation for the utility of these teeth, but they’d seen other scrapers on the market with these teeth. they structured the base of the scraper in such a manner as to render these teeth useless. fail.
