Released cargo-nextest 0.9.111 with a pretty big improvement: in interactive terminals, up to 8 running tests are now displayed below the progress bar! This comes after some exceptional polish work by glehmann. (Thank you!)

Update now with cargo nextest self update :)

Released cargo-nextest 0.9.109, with support for --show-progress=running to show each running test on its own line.

--show-progress=only also hides details about successful tests.

Run cargo nextest self update, or install @ get.nexte.st. Thanks to glehmann for contributing this excellent feature!

The number of people on HN who believe platform holders have no responsibility to their customers is shocking to me. I do basic QA against the users of my open source projects!

Been meaning to put this somewhere for a while — a real, solid technical reason linear VCS history is better than one full of merges, going beyond taste and subjective preference

reminder: the primary goal of most enterprises is to produce goods and services for its customers. the primary goal of meta is to evaluate its employees

yeah. though it's not a git tool! it is a VCS that has git as one of two supported backends

it is extremely well designed in many ways, and eliminates things like stashes while providing all the power through providing better primitives. it also has a first class undo operation
