Git 1.7.7 changes affecting the everyday developer

Hacker News has been an education for me about how many people don't realize that WordPress will destroy their server without caching.

Seems to be down: <a href="http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:johnkary.net/git-1-7-7-changes-affecting-the-everyday-developer/&#38;hl=en&#38;strip=1" rel="nofollow">http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:johnkar...</a>

Oh, awesome. I use the stash constantly and always run into the wall of having to add untracked files before doing it. <i>upgrades</i>

These changes are both awesome. Particularly the one to submodule update. I have a project setup where not everyone has access to all its submodules. Prior to this, people would have to manually run update for each submodule they were allowed to access. Otherwise it would fail part way through on the ones they didn't have access to. Great news!

Enabled WP Super Cache plugin, site should be back and operating as normal.

Slightly misleading title. Should have been something like Git 1.7.7 benefiting the everyday developer

maybe he didnt expect to hit frontpage

I for one welcome our new overlord = HN effect :P
