Testing out live terminal session replays on my blog.

Same "easy viewing" of a proof of concept as a gif/video except:
1. Super easy to record `asciinema rec file.cast`
2. Super easy to host on my site
3. The best part.... you can copy/paste the text from the terminal replay ๐Ÿคฏ

I'm always a little happy when I have to build something from source and see it's written in rust. Cargo is so nice :)

Well technically it would remove the tmp dir you were trying to remove!

git archive would work i think but github disables it ๐Ÿคก

TIL: there doesn't seem to be a way to read a raw file from a remote repository using pure git commands without first cloning the repo ๐Ÿคจ

Having it all stored in git is also super handy.

The past version I used "worked" and was much fancier but was totally over engineered. It stored annotations as extended attributes, had a fancy TUI, could mark/star files, etc but... I'm not sure. It felt clunky.

I've gone through a couple iterations of this over the past year or so with varying degrees of success. This doesn't have a ton of bells and whistles but works well by running: `note filename "description"`

No more random `dump.pcap`, `dump2.pcap`, `poc_working_final_2.sh`

A simple .bashrc function lets me quickly annotate a file using git notes. I initially tried to use commits for this but it got a bit clunky and confusing when multiple files were involved.

When looking for obscure issues I always end up with tons files like: poc_final_final2.sh

I don't always have time to organize things without the potential of losing my train of thought so I've been trying to find an easy solution. This is my most recent attempt:
