"My email address isn't on the web" Yes it is, you put it there. https://github.com/garybernhardt/dotfiles/blob/master/.mutt/... I fail to see the dramatic issue here. FWIW, I once got a very good (unsolicited) job offer after putting code on the web, more than a decade before github even existed.

> I made a few abortive switches to Vim that didn't last a week because my productivity was too hampered and the environment too extreme & foreign. That was my experience as well. I was pretty comfortable using vim in emergencies but the few times I tried to make it my full-time IDE failed very quickly. Once I stole Gary Bernhardt's dotfiles[1] I was able to stick with it because I didn't have to start from scratch with keymaps, plugins, etc. [1] https://github.com/garybernhardt/dotfiles

Create commits using `add -p` up to the point that the current state of the work tree is fully committed. (You can `reset HEAD^` if you need to add some stuff that you do not want to become part of your branch's history, at least not in its current form.) Then test using run-command-on-git-revisions[1] on the new commits. This lets you create multiple commits at the same time and run tests on all of them. You could argue that committing and resetting is effectively the same thing as stashing and popping, but I think the benefits of being able to iterate over a list of commits and test each one is worth creating additional commits that you will probably reset shortly after testing. This is also what you should do after a rebase to test all affected commits as they have not neccesarily existed in a testable state in the work tree. [1] https

When you're done, just use Bernhardt's "run-command-on-git-revisions" to run tests on each of the commits to ensure they are all working code. https://github.com/garybernhardt/dotfiles/blob/master/bin/ru...

For vim users, Gary Bernhardt's vimrc has a nice little snippet to map the tab key to perform completion if the cursor isn't at the beginning on a line. https://github.com/garybernhardt/dotfiles/blob/master/.vimrc... You use tab for completion in so many other contexts, it's nice not to have to break that habit in your editor.

If you like this you should already be subscribed to Destroy All Software: outstanding value for the dollar. I actually prefer Gary's "git r" and "git l" to this. If you really want to skip on the awesomeness that is DAS, he has his dotfiles up on github that are chock full of great tidbits: https://github.com/garybernhardt/dotfiles
