I used bash for a decade or so before I discovered this little highly useful gem a few years back. Nowadays I can't remember what I used to do without it.

From the bash manual page:

CDPATH

The search path for the cd command.  This is  a  colon-separated
list of directories in which the shell looks for destination
directories specified by the cd command.

A sample value is ".:~:/usr".

I've added the following to my .bashrc:

CDPATH=.:/turnkey:/turnkey/projects:/turnkey/appliances

Now this works:

Having trouble writing? It may be just that you are having trouble doing two things at the same time:

1. decide what the prose should say (substance)
2. write the prose (form)

They are intimately interconnected. If you don't REALLY know what you want to say, you are going to have a hell of a time saying it. And then instead of actually writing sentences, you play with grammer and use alot of syntatic sugar until your sentence seems to have filled a respectable space (form over substance) and you can move on to the next one.

A while back I decided it would be a good idea to combine a loose collection of related Git repositories into one big Git repository.

The rational for this was that I noticed that often the same logical change had to be broken up into multiple commits across these previously separate repositories in a way that made it difficult to track which changes were part of the same change. In other words it artificially fragmented the commits and made revisions harder to track.

Drum roll please... May I proudly introduce: The TurnKey Linux v14.0 release!

A long time coming...

Wow is it mid September already!? What has happened to the year?!
