PowerPack to switch from GitHub to Bitbucket

As a test I`ve decided to try Bitbucket instead of GitHub to host PowerPack.

The old path was: github.com/Ramoonus/Powerpack
The new path is: bitbucket.org/ramoonus/powerpack

More WordPress Plugins removed

Today I`ve redrawn the following WordPress plugins from WordPress.org;

  • Opera Speed Dial
  • Has.js
  • jQuery Mobile (Updater)

    This plugin will be included in a future version of jQuery Updater

This means that they are no longer available or supported

I will post the source code on GitHub later this week.

Development Progress of jQuery Updater for WordPress

Today I`ve started working on my jQuery Updater for WordPress plugin.

Step 1: moving to GitHub

First step was linking Subversion and Git, which was a hell

Step 2: decide workflow

The second step is deciding the workflow: tools and rules. I decided to skip Grunt and Vagrant for now, since the code isn`t going to be rocket science.
I use phpDoc for documenting the PHP code and GitHub as project management (issues, milestones).

This setup will do fine for now!

Step 3: project management

Making a roadmap, with issues, features and prioritising all that I want before I start working and losing grip on the project.

Step 4: work

Starting with cleaning up code followed by creating space for new features. Leaving the hardest bits for the last. Although this isn`t ideal it makes future  development a whole lot easier.

Want to help?

The project is located on GitHub at github.com/Ramoonus/jQuery-Updater

Forking WooCommerce on GitHub

First fork WooCommerce to one of your channels through github.com/woothemes/woocommerce/fork_select

Use the GitHub client (for Windows or Mac OS X) to sync with a local directory, or clone your repostitory by hand.

Enter the console in the WooCommerce fork directory and run the following commands to add extra sources:
git remote add upstream git://github.com/woothemes/woocommerce.git

Merge upstream with the current working directory
git fetch upstream
git merge upstream/master

And put it all online:
git push origin master
