Get Git Branches Checked Out on a Date
I don't use any type of git UI -- I try to be hardcore and stick to the command line. This makes git usage quicker but I also probably miss out on a lot of the functionality that would be nice to know. The functionality is there, of course, but without a nice icon or menu item you don't really think about it.
I was browsing CommandLineFu and found a nice git snippet which provides you a listing of branches checked out on a given date:
git reflog --date=local | grep "Sep 10 .* checkout: moving from .* to" | grep -o "[a-zA-Z0-9\-]*$" | sort | uniq
I love this snippet because I often forget recently created branch names (...grow up and delete old branches, David!), especially when leaving work for the weekend. Handy!

MooTools has always gotten a bit of grief for not inherently using and standardizing namespaced-based JavaScript classes like the Dojo Toolkit does. Many developers create their classes as globals which is generally frowned up. I mostly disagree with that stance, but each to their own. In any event...
![Chris Coyier’s Favorite CodePen Demos]()
David asked me if I'd be up for a guest post picking out some of my favorite Pens from CodePen. A daunting task! There are so many! I managed to pick a few though that have blown me away over the past few months. If you...
![Using MooTools For Opacity]()
Although it's possible to achieve opacity using CSS, the hacks involved aren't pretty. If you're using the MooTools JavaScript library, opacity is as easy as using an element's "set" method. The following MooTools snippet takes every image with the "opacity" class and sets...
![jQuery Link Nudge Plugin]()
A while back I debuted a tasteful mouseover/mouseout technique called link nudging. It started with a MooTools version and shortly thereafter a jQuery version. Just recently Drew Douglass premiered a jQuery plugin that aimed at producing the same type of effect.
That was really helpful. I created a script “branches by date” to make it easier to use, I hope that someone will find it useful. https://gist.github.com/ahmedelgabri/2684c4578c3fe5990c5a
