Git branch in prompt (with svn support)
I like having my git branch in my prompt, but I sadly still have to use subversion sometimes. So, I hacked something together (mostly out of this script for vcs info in your prompt) that gives either the current git branch or the current svn revision. In my .bash_profile, I include this file with source ~/sw/bash/vcs-prompt.bash.
Quicksilver to Remember the Milk via Twitter
My coworker Coda Hale wrote a script that lets you send tweets from Quicksilver, and Remember the Milk recently came out with a twitter interface. Combining these two things was glorious, but it annoyed me that I had to type “d rtm” at the beginning of everything. So I copied the tweeting script, and modified it for a single purpose: adding tasks to RTM.
Here is a link to download the script. To install it, just unzip it and put it in ~/Library/Application Support/Quicksilver/Actions/. To use it, invoke Quicksilver, type some text, hit tab, and choose “Add to RTM” as the task. (You need to have a twitter account, and have saved your twitter.com password into your keychain.)
