Repoman 0.3

Sander May 27, 2025 at 2:03 pm
Repoman is a script to export and import a list of git repositories. Version 0.3 has the following improvements:

The repoman script has been enhanced with new filtering options like --no-remote, --all, and --help for better control over repository listings. The command-line interface now features improved parameter handling and a detailed help menu with usage examples. Error handling has been upgraded by switching to exit statements for more reliable termination and enhancing input validation. Additionally, the script now robustly handles empty lines, invalid entries, and potential failures during git operations.

#til Also on the subject of Firefox, there are some amazing #Firefox tab management add-ons out there:
- Winger -- excellent for those favouring a one window per project workflow.
- native Tab Groups!
- Favicon Switcher -- excellent for distinguishing multiple project on the same domain.
- Keep pinned tabs alive -- always have access to the pinned tabs. Great with Sticky pinned tabs and Toggle pin tab.
- Select after closing current -- excellent keyboard support on this one.

Remembered about this hidden browser.compactmode.show Firefox about:config setting, enabled it in Customize toolbar... and added a few tweaks to my userChrome.css file. Considering the browser is open all day for me, it's worth optimising the environment a little for open tabs. #til #firefox

/* make it easier to find active tab */
.tab-background {
    &:is([selected], [multiselected]) {
        border-top: 1px solid #444 !important;
    }
}

/* thinner pins, even in compact toolbar mode */
.tab-content {
    padding: 0 4px !important;
}

/* remove space between tabs */
.tabbrowser-tab {
    padding: 0 !important;
}

I needed some way to open a bunch of text links in browser tabs for a Sprint Refinement, so I generated a little python script for it. #projects

I should really add pagination to my #lamb blog. There's an issue already.
