• 18:32 UTC (new) (history) 2026-01-05 Magit and new branch length . . . . mbork – Like many Emacsers, I am a heavy Magit user. If you use Magit, I don’t need to tell you how great it is; if you don’t, I suggest you do yourself a favor and try it out. That doesn’t mean that Magit is ideal, though. It has some issues, though usually very minor ones. Today I’d like to write about something which is definitely not a “Magit issue”, but rather something I personally miss in it.

• 19:43 UTC (new) (history) 2025-12-22 Summing effort estimates, my way . . . . mbork – For some time now I’ve been planning my tasks for the upcoming week every Sunday morning. Not for my day job – this is not something I want to bother my mind with on Sundays, and besides we have Jira for that – but for my personal life. Stuff like doing things around the house, planning doctor’s appointments, etc. For each task I estimate the time it’s going to take, and I don’t want to plan more than some fixed amount of time per week. Naturally, I’d like to have the total time counted for me by my computer.

• 18:04 UTC (new) (history) 2025-12-15 Improving Emacs screenshots . . . . mbork – Three years ago I wrote a short post about making screenshots directly in Emacs. I’m still using that feature from time to time (last time when I was writing the post about changing window layouts), and I noticed that it could use some improvement.
