Expected 11, got 42. when you try and run your program. node uses numbers from 10 going up, and iojs uses numbers from 40 going up. The NODE_MODULE_VERSION gets bumped usually when V8 is upgraded, but sometimes for other reasons. It also gets even more complicated when you start talking about runtimes like Electron or Node-Webkit, but I won't get into that here. To my knowledge there is n

Converts an issue into a pull request. Works within one repository only and always pulls a branch into master. Requires github.user and github.token to be set.
#!/bin/sh
BRANCH_NAME=$(git symbolic-ref -q HEAD)
BRANCH_NAME=${BRANCH_NAME##refs/heads/}
BRANCH_NAME=${BRANCH_NAME:-HEAD}
REPO_NAME=`git config --get-regexp remote\..+\.url | perl -p -e 's/^remote\.\w+\.url\s+git\@github.com:(.+).git/\$1/'`
echo "Pulling $BRANCH_NAME into master of $REPO_NAME"
