Hints

How to set up a clean environemnt? 🔗

Safe method: use a temporary user account on your computer.

• on macOS:
  • if you are not using FileVault, switch to the "Guest User". You may have to enable this in "System Preferences -> Users & Groups". When you're done, all data will be removed automatically.
  • if you are using FileVault, create a new user in "System Preferences -> Users & Groups". When you're done, you'll need to remove this user manually.
• on Linux:
  • create a new user with sudo useradd -m qa, and log into that account. When you're done, remove the user with sudo userdel -r qa. Note: "qa" is just an example user name, you can choose anything you like

Dangerous method: remove all directories manually.

You can use this script. Make sure you have a backup of your data, or are using this in combination with the safe method (i.e. while logged in with a temporary user account).

How to set up git? 🔗

git config --global user.name "Mona Lisa"
git config --global user.email "email@example.com"

How to install? 🔗

On macOS:

1. open the radicle-upstream-0.1.7.dmg package
2. install Upstream by dragging the Radicle Upstream binary to /Applications

On Linux (AppImage):

1. chmod +x <PATH_TO_DOWNLOAD>/radicle-upstream-0.1.7.AppImage

How to query repo stats from the CLI? 🔗

  # local branch count
  git branch | wc -l

  # all unique contributors across all branches
  git shortlog --summary --numbered --email --all

  # all unique contributors in a specific branch
  git shortlog --summary --numbered --email myfunkybranch

  # unique commit count across all branches
  git rev-list --all --count

  # commit count in a specific branch
  git rev-list --count myfunkybranch

App is functional, however there are a couple of visual regressions:

• onboarding modal centering breaks when a longer validation message is shown

0.1.6	0.1.7

• regressions on the commit screen
  • the commit screen has odd linebreaks

0.1.6	0.1.7

• the commit screen becomes scrollable horizontally, even though there is enough space for everything
