techincaldebt

This is a gem to submit your technical debt via git post commit hook to technicaldebt.r09.railsrumble.com How can I do this? Well all you need to do is go to technicaldebt.r09.railsrumble.com/account and get your token then install it:

git config –global technicaldebt.token your_token_here

Then install the gem:

gem source –add gems.github.com sudo gem install technicaldebt-technicaldebt

Then you have a spiffy git post commit hook that will submit your #DEBT comments,

#DEBT 3 hours - refactor the index action on movies_controller to be 8 lines or less

from your code to the application for tracking. But Git is distributed, I may be offline on a boat, train, plane, what then???

Well fear not!!! technicaldebt will log your debt messages and submit them next time you commit and you online.

Note on Patches/Pull Requests

  • Fork the project.

  • Make your feature addition or bug fix.

  • Add tests for it. This is important so I don’t break it in a future version unintentionally.

  • Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but

    bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)
    
  • Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
