So, without any further ado, here are the top 10 Google Now alternative launchers for Android : #Vlc scopebox install Next up on our list is an awesome launcher from Google. Like the Google now launcher, Pixel Launcher is clean, well designed and minimalistic. The right-swipe provides your Google Now cards, swipe upwards to access the app drawer. The launcher gained notoriety when the Pixel smartphone released.

Well there are many improvements to be done to the launcher and has all features of the Pixel UI except the Google’s new Assistant feature. Also it features recently used apps in the app drawer section. Still it’s an awesome launcher and is worth trying out. This is a post for appreciating “git bisect” and how it can be one of the most powerful tool to find out root cause of a broken build or a broken branch.This launcher has the “Premium look” that is not fpund anywhere else. Here is simple example of how “git bisect” can be used to find a bad commit. Lets assume that we have a git repository which has hundreds of commits and currently the HEAD of the master branch is broken.
SCOPEBOX VLC CODE
Our objective is to find out which commit introduced the bug in to the code base.īefore starting the git bisect process we need to know a couple of things. a old commit at which code worked as expected. This is not very difficult to find out as it is most likely the last release of the code. Also we need to know the steps to test the code and reproduce the issue. It will help us to find out if certain commits are good or bad during the git bisect process. Git bisect uses binary search algorithm between the good and bad commit to find out the commit that introduced the bug. Lets call the current HEAD commit as “original HEAD” $ git bisect startīisecting: 130 revisions left to test after this (roughly 4 steps) Here are the commands to start the git bisect work flow. Once the above commands are executed, git bisect will change the HEAD to the middle of the commits between the “original HEAD” and good commit. Read about binary search if you want to know how it decides to which commit the HEAD needs to be moved.Īt this point we are expected to test the code and find out if we are able to reproduce the issue. After the testing we need to again tell git bisect if it is bad commit (see below) i.e.

$git bisect badīisecting: 65 revisions left to test after this (roughly 3 steps) we are able to reproduce the issue else it is a good commit. We need to continue the process few times and git bisect will give you the commit which introduced the issue/bug. In my experience I always get to the commit (which introduced the issue) in 4 to 5 steps of git bisect. So go ahead and try git bisect if you have not tried it yet and do not forget to use it when you broken builds. Sometime you might want to test pull requests (from github) in local machine by cherry picking it. This usually happens before it get merged in the upstream repo and released by the project.
SCOPEBOX VLC HOW TO
I searched the internet but did not get good reference about how to do it.
SCOPEBOX VLC PATCH
Posted in Developer Tips, Open Source | Tagged github, Open Source | 1 Reply vagrant-cachier in Fedora 23 with KVM Libvirt #Vlc scopebox Patch#Īppend “.patch” and and use it for patch the local code.Use the new url for cherry picking the patch on your local repository.It will automatic resolve as something like below.Copy the pull request url, append “.patch” and open it in a browser.After little bit of trial and error I came up with below steps. Vagrant cachier is a very useful plugin for Vagrant users.
SCOPEBOX VLC UPDATE
It helps to reduce time and the amount of packages get downloaded from internet between each “vagrant destroy”.įor example, you are using a CentOS 7 image in Vagrant setup and want it to update with the latest packages every time you start working in the guest then the usual work flow is “vagrant up” -> “vagrant ssh” > “sudo yum update -y” -> “Do your stuff” -> “vagrant destroy”. Vagrant-cachier keeps the downloaded packages in the file system of the host machine and uses this for the guest as cache.īut the amount of packages get downloaded during yum update and the time consumed for it is somehow undesirable. The yum update in the guest gets the packages from the cache and the time and internet usage is drastically reduced. This can take a few minutes.īundler, the underlying system Vagrant uses to install plugins, Issue: ~]# vagrant plugin install vagrant-cachier I tried to install vagrant-cachier on my Fedora 23 laptop with KVM and libvirt and got in to below issue.
