Today I’ve learnt how to use git-bisect and that’s what I found out.

Initial scenario

The typical use case in which git bisect can help us making our lives easier is the following one:

Let’s assume that we are working on a project and that we finally achieve a stable version, let’s tag it as version v1.0.0. After that, our work continues adding new features and so on. Some commits before we reach the point in which we think we should release a new version, that version might be tagged as v1.1.0-rc. Unfortunately, during the release process we discovered that one of the features previously implemented is no longer working as expected (we should have noticed that in our tests… but they were not testing this specific case in which the bug comes to light¹…).

Hello world!

So that’s it. This is my first post just to say hello. Nothing memorable but enough to introduce myself and to make a summary of what you can expect to find here.

Últimos monos is expected to be a technical blog, with the following declaration of intent in respect of covered topics:

Some system administration ideas.
Git experiences.
Since I’m learning how to use Jekyll, I expect to publish related content.
Howtos
Cheat sheets.
Code snippets.
Good? practices.

I would also like to add some posts with the following topic, but that might be too ambitious at this point… Only time will tell.

Little DIY projects.
System architectures.
Open source software.

I hope that some time from now the tags section will be full of contents related to the ones listed here and even some more. Enough for presentations, it’s time to start producing some interesting contents!
