Fixing timestamps on existing git commits

 Need to move all of your git commits a few hours to the future or the past, for example to fix a timezone issue? You've come to the right place. This is something I expected would be easy to find online, but wasn't. So I'm leaving it here, in case someone else is googling for it as well. First, you need to install git-filter-repo [https://github.com/newren/git-filter-repo], a great tool for manipulating git repositories. This is a destructive action, so do it at your own risk. The tool will...

Getting Started with Github Actions for .NET Core

 When I pushed my recent Ghoplin [https://zblesk.net/blog/introducing-ghoplin/] mini-project to GitHub, it automatically offered to define a build action.

Running a git repo site on nginx on Ubuntu

 Last time around [https://zblesk.net/blog/ghost-learning-nginx-on-ubuntu/] I wrote about migrating my webs to an Ubuntu VM. One of the few things that were left to migrate was my private git repo hosting site. I'd used Bonobo Git Server [http://bonobogitserver.com/] and had always been satisfied with it. Since it doesn't target .Net Core, I didn't see any reasonable way to run it on Ubuntu. After some searching, I'd fortunately stumbled upon Gitea [https://gitea.io/]. To get it up and running f...

Migrating history from TFS to Git with git-tfs

 Maybe you've found yourself stuck with a codebase in the TFS Version Control System and would like to move it, along with its entire history, into Git. If so, this article explains how to do it. Even if you don't plan to move, you might want to check out git-tfs [https://github.com/git-tfs/git-tfs] - a bridge between TFS and Git, that allows you to work with your codebase in TFS as if it were a Git repository. I'd been using git-tfs for multiple projects, and since now the TFS server itself dire...
