I thought this would be simple enough for me but I get an error message "No such file or directory" when I try to save there.
When I hit "ls" it lists the directory with a "?" after it.

I am planning to write an object-oriented shell (based on Python). I have many ideas already. But before I am going to implement it, I want to inspire me by some existing shell.
What I basically mean by object-oriented:
Parameters are not just an array of strings but an array of objects.
The return value is also an object.
There is no...

I'm using giternal, which compresses the .git directory of the external references into a .tgz file. Unfortunately, every time I "freeze" the external, a new .tgz file is created for the repo.
Even though the contents of the .git directory are the same, a new .tgz file, with diffs, is created. This leads to repo bloat.
Is there a way t...
