My grandmother bought 10 X-Boxes on EBay one christmas for everybody ("I only paid $100!"), boy was she surprised when she got 10 emails with links to sites you could buy X-Boxes.
We don't let grandma near the computer anymore.

Did you know. Those e-mails aren't worded more professional as those who fall for this already bad formulated texts are more likely to follow through the entire process of scam where others would be getting more suspicious when posing questions etc. leading to a time waste for the scammers 
So an E-mail which for you and I is obviously a fake has a higher ROI as the amount of work to sending out the e-mails is most likely near nothing whereas responding to answers from them is very high. they just try to find the dumbest (might not be the case everywhere  ) most ignorant or unaware people on the interwebz.

Just tell him you're disinclined to acquiesce to his request.

Yeah and I also don't want to do it!

I have been collecting a set of command line utilities for my own use.
All of them are 64-bit.
I have:
* 7-Zip Command Line
* BSDCpio
* BSDTar
* BZip2
* GNU DiffUtils
* GNU Gettext
* GNU Grep
* Lua
* GNU M4
* GNU Patch
* GNU Sed
* Swiss File Knife
* GNU Wget
* libxml2 Utilities
* libxslt Utilities
* A batch file for the 'clear' command
* A batch file for the 'pwd' command
Are there any utilities you guys like? Also, If anyone wants these, I can package them and put them on SkyDrive.

Otherwise, only things I write myself.

I've got me a big stash of 32 bit utils ... most unix utils (grep sed awk.... ) running on DOS.

Have a look at cygwin. You'll get practically all of the Linux command line
utilities at once. The only catch is that they run in their own environment,
so you have to open a bash window to run them, but for me, that is an added plus.

I know about Cygwin, and I am working on updating a lot of the utilities in it to the latest versions.

Have the Git plugin installed within my VS 2013 - Committed, changes from an hour of Work undone. Nothing recoverable, instead of committing the lil` f****** just replaced everything with the stuff from the last Commit.
Going to Install TFS on a spare machine as soon as the WLAN Repeater gets delivered next week.

You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named "Bush", "Dick", and "Colon."

Not that I know what I'm talking about, but possibly, if you did a commit without a push and then a pull, it might have reset to the previous commit, but your code might still be stashed somewhere. Now, I know it's supposed to pull and then recombine with any non-pushed commit, but who knows.

It was automatically downloaded and installed after choosing GitHub as Source Code Mgmt System.
It is called "Git version 1.8.3-preview20130601".
I should've stopped after reading the 'preview' part  .

VisualSVN server and the Ankhsvn plug-in, both free. 'nuff said.

He should use GitExtensions...
I'm very happy with it.

I got TFS for free, so I'mma give it a try first.
Will come back to your sugg if TFS is too much of a PITA to set up.

I tried to take TFS for a spin, but my VS at the ISP doesn't have one of the required SPs and they wont install it due to compatibility with their vm software. (which sounds like an excuse to me).
Hence the reason I stuck with VSVN.

I like svn. It works. Its simple. its got tortoise.

Frankly, I doubt you lost your work.
With git, you can't loose your work, check your branches with a tool like tortoise GIT.
The only way to loose things is to do a revert before commiting.
Even the vs git provider would need painful workaround to make your work disappear.

IF you want to use a DVCS I recommend Mercurial; unlike Git Hg is designed to make shooting your foot off very difficult.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I second what Dave said: VirtuslSVN Server and Anhk. The only issues that I have had have been "user" error.
|

I also like the fact if you really do screw things up, you run a command prompt across the solution ot delete all the .svn files and you get your clean solution back.
Had to do that once when I messed up a migration, it was my fault in the first place....
