Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Updating Silverblue KDE from the terminal is way too convoluted. Sadly Fedora won't do anything as they only care about the GUI experience.

# Defined in /home/raphael/.config/fish/functions/update.fish @ line 1
function update --description 'Update and cleanup system'
    fedora sudo dnf update -y
    rpm-ostree update
    flatpak update -y
    flatpak uninstall --unused
    flatpak uninstall --delete-data
end

I like to use the ones includes in oh-my-zsh. It's a big list, but the ones I use the most are:

gst --> git status

gcam --> git commit -am

gcp --> git cherry-pick

gsta --> git stash save

gstp --> git stash pop

gpsup --> git push --set-upstream origin $(git_current_branch)

grb --> git rebase

Quite basic but saves me a couple of seconds each time. alias update="sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y && sudo apt autoremove -y && sudo apt autoclean -y"

alias gladog="git log —all —decorate —oneline —graph" is my all time favourite. Sometimes I just want to have a quick way to see the git graph in the terminal.
