Brad Jones: blog

I often use drush fua to update existing site features on my development server. While it's a great shortcut to update the features' content, version numbers aren't automatically incremented. There's a ticket on Drupal.org proposing this feature, but as usual things got complicated.

For my benefit (and perhaps yours) here's my quick-and-dirty way of loading up the changed .info files into my favorite X editor, Komodo.

Denver Mayor Michael Hancock was right to campaign against Initiative 300, the "sick time" mandate on private employers that was walloped last night by voters. But despite being right in his opposition, he's playing the go-along-get-along card with the initiative's kooky backers.

Case in point, from today's Denver Post:

Denver Mayor Michael Hancock said: "I hope they give consideration to looking at this on a statewide basis. That's really where it belongs."

I maintain a number of Drupal websites, most of which are managed in a multisite install. I use the same, big git repository for all of them, pushing versions to my production environment using a standard workflow.

Sometimes, however, a project begins in its own repository, which I then want to merge into the multisite repository. I could use submodules to similar effect, but the whole point here is to consolidate repositories, not just link them.

Here we go again: The steady drumbeat you hear emanates from the band marching between RTD headquarters and Denver city hall. Baton-twirling to lead the pack is newly-inaugurated mayor Michael Hancock, who is quoted in today's Post supportive of a 2012 transit tax hike.
