metaprogramming in JS for fun and profit 
// remap exports.foo to exports._foo, log arguments
// passed to foo, then call _foo.
for (fun in exports) {
  (function(f) {
    // bail if it's not a function I added to the exports object
    if (typeof exports[f] !== 'function' || !exports.hasOwnProperty(f)) { return; }
 exports['_' + f] = exports[f];

Checkout github pull requests locally

Locate the section for your github remote in the .git/config file. It looks like this:

[remote "origin"]
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	url = [email protected]:joyent/node.git

Now add the line fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/* to this section. Obviously, change the github url to match your project's URL. It ends up looking like this:

See all your work in a given repo over the last couple of weeks, collated by day. Makes filling out timesheets much easier.

To run the script, pass it a git repo as the first argument.

ruby timesheeting_like_a_boss.rb ~/projects/babushka

Here's what I see in babushka:

Use one of these techniques to install node and npm without having to sudo. Discussed in more detail at http://joyeur.com/2010/12/10/installing-node-and-npm/ Note: npm >=0.3 is *safer* when using sudo.
echo 'export PATH=$HOME/local/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc
. ~/.bashrc
mkdir ~/local
mkdir ~/node-latest-install
cd ~/node-latest-install
curl http://nodejs.org/dist/node-latest.tar.gz | tar xz --strip-components=1
./configure --prefix=~/local
make install # ok, fine, this step probably takes more than 30 seconds...
curl https://www.npmjs.org/install.sh | sh
