Configure git send-email for gmail

Mon, 06 Apr 2015 20:53:34 +0000

Today I did a fresh installation of Fedora on my Chromebook and need to setup git send-email. Usually I need to do this step once every 1-2 years I thought it might be a good idea to write it down.

Edit ~/.gitconfig

[sendemail] from = Firstname Lastname email@gmail.com smtpserver = smtp.gmail.com smtpuser = email@gmail.com smtpencryption = tls smtppass = PASSWORD chainreplyto = false smtpserverport = 587

As I am using Googles two factor authentication I needed to generate an app specific password.

Rebase Github fork

Sat, 08 Feb 2014 09:37:49 +0000

Today I needed to rebase my etnaviv fork to the current master of upstream. I need to say that I never did this before but with git this is a breeze.

If you get a merge conflict during rebase, you only need to follow the instructions git gives you.

The error occurs in ‘libcurl’, which is the underlying protocol for http. To get more details about the error, set GIT_CURL_VERBOSE=1
