For a while I was using git and github for uploading my code and projects. ( In case you yet not familiar with it – github is really a great place for storing your code and collaborating/ sharing your work with others, so please check it out.)

I was using Ubuntu OS and ofcourse – on Linux machine git is basically installed with a single command and SSH keys are created very easy.

Windows users had the option for using stuff like cygwin, to be able to get the git functionality under windows, which at some point could be a little anoying for the GUI type of guys :) …Well  not anymore!

After switching back to windows I was amazed how much TortoiseGit has improved for the last few years, and how easy it is now for the windows users to use git :)

In this tutorial I’ll cover the following:

  • how to install everything you need to setup Git and TortoiseGIT on your lovely Windows OS.
  • how to generate a private key with PuttyGen and set this up on your github account
  • how to initially create your repo at github and clone the repo to your local machine

OK – lets do this !

Hello :) ,
these days i was making a lot of compliments about Windows 7, i was telling my friends how fast and stable it is, even that it’s still in Beta :) . Well i think that it is double as fast compared to Vista, double as stable, double …. blablabla
… and also you have double the toolbars, double the menu items double everything :D

Hello everybody :) it’s been a while since my last post, i actually almost forgot that i have a blog :P just kiddin doll :) anyway – from now on there will be every day updates on the topics that you are interested the most :)
And now let’s get to the point…
For everybody that uses Apache/Php/Mysql or Xampp under Windows is good to have a repository server to store their projects, update and commit their work etc.
installing the svn server

I’ve been using so far SVN server that you can install directly with your current Apache configuration, but to do so you have to install svn server, modify the httpd.conf to set up the SVN directory, and then write some lines in the cmd window so that you can create a service which is able to start the svn daemon automatically, so that you dont have to start it everytime you want to use it :P
if you are interested to do the thing the hard way – be my guest :) , follow the tutorials in the URLs below and you should be fine :)

However recently i updated to Windows 7 ( win7 ) beta 7022 which is actually pretty stable OS, and behaving much better than the shity Vista :P . So i had to reinstall the SVN all over again, which if you are lazy person can be pretty boring:)

So i found the Visual SVN Sever:

installing the svn server

http://visualsvn.com/server/

after some searching i found pretty damn good easy to understand tutorial in which even if you havent using it before, most probably you will get everything on ;)

so – check it here

http://rajibmahmud.wordpress.com/2009/01/09/work-with-visual-svn-server-tortoise-svn/

the Visual SVN will create separate apache process and will manage your repository via https (you have to write https://server-name/main-repository-name/your-project:port) insted of svn://server/project-name but i guess it’s ok cuz almost everything is done automaticaly. The only thing you have to config are the User rights and passwords etc :)

Georgi Mitev blog LinQ to SQL

Developers can use LINQ with any data source. They can express efficient query behavior in their programming language of choice, optionally transform/shape data query results into whatever format they want, and then easily manipulate the results. LINQ-enabled languages can provide full type-safety and compile-time checking of query expressions, and development tools can provide full intellisense, debugging, and rich refactoring support when writing LINQ code.
