If you _really_ hate leftover `.gitkeep`, you can write a commit (or push) hook that rejects commits where `.gitkeep` isn't the only file in its directory. (more) |

I offer one minimum and a couple nice-to-haves. Some of these I have learned as a contributor; some as a maintainer. Must Don't be a jerk When people engage with your project, don't be dism...

A: GnuTLS config for my own root CA, for use on internal server Does GnuTLS support CA Name Constraints (RFC 5280, 4.2.1.10), so you can limit the valid domains directly in the root CA? I'm not aware of any CAs that self-limit this way,[^moz] except for when the US government tried (unsuccessfully?) to get one approved by the CA/B forum for `.gov` and `.mil`. ... (more) |

I don't know that you're going to get anything more helpful than the test you already did. You could trawl the Bash changelogs to see if they indicate that the behavior was ever different, but "absence of evidence is not evidence of absence." (more) |
