♔ Don't Panic See You In GitHub

After a few months on Hosted Redmine/Bitbucket, I've decided to pull all Elwood developments/wiki/issue tracker into one spot - GitHub. There's nothing wrong with Hosted Redmine and Bitbucket, they both provided me absolutely great services at $0.

It all boils down to splitting projects into personal and public projects. You see, I own 2 Git accounts: Bitbucket and GitHub. My overall intention was to keep all things private in Bitbucket and the rest publicly in GitHub. Elwood was suppose to be just a thought, a result of N-number of days day dreaming about writing a personal CI server. I was expecting this thought to vaporise as days go on, hence a private repository for late night coding activity.

Happy GitHubbing everyone!

♕ Keep Calm We're Moving To Gitflow

I'm evaluating Elwood development with Gitflow. One thing I like about Gitflow is that it gives the ability to better track changes, releases and bug fixes. It also allows me to stay focus in writing one feature at a time. You see, there is an adrenaline rush in me that I sometimes find myself shoving unrelated changes to my timeline. I could commit one large snowball of unrelated codes that may stretch the completion time to 1.5 times longer if I'm lucky or 3 times longer if I'm not-so-lucky.

This definitely contradicts the spirit of agile with the emphasis of delivering in small increments. (Ahhh, agile that starts with a lower case... How pragmatic do I sound?)

I did ask myself if this could be too much of an overhead for a lone developer like me?

Well, time will tell...
