Reddit mentions of Pro Git

This was a slow month. I picked up a copy of Pro Git 2nd Edition to try to take my Git skills to another level. It's a a good read if anyone is looking to get into Git (ha!).

For PowerShell specific stuff:

• Finished a manuscript review for the next edition of Power in a Month of Lunches and submitted my 25+ page review. Hopefully they didn't laugh at me and file it away. I probably took the review too seriously, but dangit I love PowerShell.
  
• Released to production an automation process which consumes subnet data out of VitalQIP (what we use for network management\DNS\etc..) and synchronizes that with Active Directory so that we have accurate subnet and site information in AD where VitalQIP is considered the master record.
  
• Started working on a new automation project to collect synthetic LDAP transaction performance statistics from our various directories (includes AD) that sit behind various VIPs to provided statistical capabilities for both my team and management to analyze how well they're performing as well as VIP up-time. The idea being that we'll register a directory with my service and then define a set of LDAP filters and then periodically execute those queries and measure the amount of time it takes to execute and pull data query responses (as a client). Store that data in a SQLite database and then use it to analyze performance statistics and produce reports.
  
• Pester.... Late to the game, but just haven't had time to really spend a lot of time with it until now. I've now shifted to requiring Pester tests in all new projects and I'm now going back and creating tests for some of my large older projects. I've noticed a significant difference in how I am now building projects now that I'm moving to a TDD (Test Drive Development) methodology. It has definitely slowed me down, but the end product seems way more stable.
  
  
  Finally I've started to take a hard look at my internal Git repositories where I work and realized that I'd really like some stuff on the outside on github.com, however I work for a company that is quite strict with sharing code, so I can't make direct ports from my internal repositories to external, which means I may have to do some re-inventing on my own time and publish stuff. I see a lot of the stuff others folks are doing on Github and I'd love to have some of my own stuff out there, so trying to find time and figure out what kinds of projects should be out there which others may see value in.

Acutally, so I purchase a few udemy courses on git and command line. But the most useful material I've found is this book call Pro Git.
Dead Tree Version here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1484200772/
The online version is free on the official git website.

Just go through the few few chapters and you'll be fine. It's honestly way more useful than anything else I've encountered. It's comprehensive but I went through it in a weekend.

Not much input on command line. I've looking for learning material on CLI as well.
