This post show you the few needed commands to create a new branch in your colaborative repository:
cd repositorynamegit push origin origin:refs/heads/branchnamegit checkout --track -b branchname origin/branchnameSome months ago I installed a git repository in our Mac server to manage all our projects, but now we are migrating to another machine (another Mac). I think that it has taken me more time to set up all system this time than the first one, I couldn’t remember how to do it.
It is not going to happen next time! So I’m writing this small manual to not forget any step becouse I have had several problems configuring gitosis, a tool that helps hosting git repositories in an easy and safe way.
This how-to is an adaptation of gitosis readme applied to Mac OS.
Download git source code from project’s home page.
Unzip the tar file and open a Terminal app to type:
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
sudo make install
Now, git version control system is fully working.
This post describes step by step how to install Trac using MacOS X Leopard’s Apache and mod_python.
First of all, you must install mod_python. I have written a post in this blog explaning how. There are options like WSGI or FCGI modules, but I have chosen this one.
After this initial configuration, you must download and install Trac. You can do it by downloading this application from its home page but I’m going to choose the easiest way.
Mac OS X includes easy_install tool that lets us to automatically download, build, install python applications.
I’ve been trying to run python scripts using Apache for a long time but finally I could install mod_python into our Mac Mini.
You can download mod_python from Apache web page:
http://httpd.apache.org/modules/python-download.cgi
Uncompress the source code and execute the configure script.
./configure --with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs
Then you have to patch the src/Makefile as follows:
Then you can compile and install this module:
make sudo make install
In order to test that mod_python works you can add the following lines at httpd.conf
<Location /mpinfo> SetHandler mod_python PythonInterpreter main_interpreter PythonHandler mod_python.testhandler </Location>
Access to http://localhost/mpinfo and get this report:
I don’t know why PHP is not enabled by default at Leopard’s Apache.
To enable it you must uncomment this line from /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
LoadModule php5_module libexec/apache2/libphp5.so
And that’s all! You only need to turn on Web Sharing at System Preferences.
If you want to test that PHP works properly, you can write a file called, for instance, info.php which contains this code:
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
Locate it into:
/Library/WebServer/Documents
And finally, access to http://localhost/info.php using your favorite web browser to test that you get the php report.
Here there are some resources used in the workshop:

Defalut admin password: blank
I’m going to be at Salamanca next 3 days.
My boss mislead me to teach a course about Moodle development, so tomorrow evening I’m getting a train to Madrid. I’ll be out few days but I’ll upload all stuff (slides, code, etc) to this blog ASAP. My speech is on Wednesday, today is Monday, I haven’t started preparing it, poker game tonight, mmmm…. yes, ASAP. 
I’m going to explain most relevant Moodle libreries, such weblib.php or dmllib.php, modules architechture, XMLDB and capabilities. I’m going to use newmodule to make an introduction and our Social Bookmarking activity as a case of study. I supose I’m going to replace some lines of code by TODOS and ask to the public to fill the gaps.
I have a problem: I don’t have enough mp3’s in my laptop. I use to listen music while I’m programing and I’m getting bored of them. So during last 3 or 4 months I’ve been listening music from youtube or last.fm.
Less than a month was enough to me to realize that I was losing too much time every day choosing next song so I tried something longer, I listening conferences and speeches.
Last week I made a post about git which contains a video that I re-watched after some months (Julipedia’s recommendation)
This time I dedicate this post to David and Ferran (DFWiki creators) who are designing and developing the new Moodle API and Webservices.
Here is a YouTube video from a Google TechTalk about designing APIs. Joshua Bloch is the speaker, the Principal Engineer at Google. He also led the design of numerous Java platform features as Java Collections Framework, java.math package and the assert mechanism. This guy knows about what is talking about…..
