This is the home of several open source projects I maintain.

• Nephthys - a file sharing tool for WebDAV and FTP
• phpfspot - a dynamic online gallery for F-Spot
• MasterShaper - a traffic shaper GUI for Linux

The NetShadow server story¶

All webserver names base on characters of "Masters of the Universe" - probably more known as "He-man".

1. skeletor - Apache, SVN-Repository, FTP-Server, ... gofer
2. orko - MySQL, IMAP, Sendmail ... quiet powerful
3. stratos - replaced skeletor

Nice and helpful pages:¶

Helpful git commands:¶

Create a tag¶

git tag -s -m "phpfspot 1.4 public release" phpfspot-1.4

Create a release-pack¶

git archive --format=tar -v --prefix=phpfspot-1.4/ phpfspot-1.4 > phpfspot-1.4.tar

Push a change directly into a remote-branch¶

git push orko:/var/www/htdocs/ master:refs/heads/cleanup

Add a tracking branch¶

git remote add contrib http://xxx.net/git/phpfspot/.git/
git fetch contrib
git branch --track contrib contrib/master

svn2git worked best for me with¶

1. Put ".hidden" files in all empty directories in the SVN repository, since GIT (in fact 'patch') does not take care of empty directories and commit them.
2. git-svn clone -A authors.txt -T trunk file:///var/lib/svn/phpfspot/
3. Clone git-repo elsewhere, then recloned back with --bare to /var/cache/git
