Git Upstream/Origin Sync

This script will sync your origin with upstream master, whether you're currently on master or checked-out on a working branch.

If you don't have an upstream remote then it will just pull and push to origin accordingly.

Just throw this in a file somewhere, chmod 755 that bad boy, and then export PATH="path/to/script:$PATH" in your favorite ~/.rc file to run from anywhere.

script

Save to a file wherever it please you (I saved it to ~/scripts/apod.sh)
Maybe make sure it is executable: chmod 755 ~/scripts/apod.sh

#!/bin/bash
# apod.sh

	# This wrapper method helps to suppress any unnecessary output
	# from stdout or stderr when executing a block of code.
	#
	# Reminder: any print/puts statements within the given block will
	# also be suppressed since they go to stdout.
	#
	# usage: suppress_output <block>
	#
	# eg:
	# suppress_output { ... }

	#!/bin/sh

	# convert input.mov to 720px wide gif at 30fps
	# ./gifenc input.mov output.gif 720 30

	palette="/tmp/palette.png"

	filters="fps=$4,scale=$3:-1:flags=lanczos"
