In January of 2016, I joined Facebook and had to make the switch from
git
to hg
. To be
honest, I wasn't really some sort of zen master of git
, but it didn't take me
long to completely forget everything I knew about it.
Now that I've moved on to Pinterest, I'm
once again back in the git
-o-sphere. This time, I'm supporting the team that's
responsible for, among other things, the company's source code management. Not
only is git
a part of my everyday work, but our team is an advocate for git
best practices. It's a bit of a rude awakening for a guy that was deep into hg
just a few months ago!
Since I'm making that transition, I decided it was time to move the repository
that backs this site from hg
to git
(and more specifically
github.com). Hopefully, I'll be able to update
more often and talk about what I've learned along the way.
