  • @hkarthik GoW2 will support up to 10 in multiplayer. An improvement from 8, but I wish they would've doubled it.
  • @hkarthik Weekly GoW2 matches work for me, but I already know I'll be on every night anyway.

CommitMonitor

Monday, March 31 2008

If you use Subversion for source code control, you owe it to yourself to get CommitMonitor. This little utility monitors any Subversion repository for check-ins and displays a system tray notification popup when a new check-in occurs. Jose tipped me off to CommitMonitor awhile back and it immediately became a must-have tool.

The tool is free and takes up very little system resources. Enjoy.

Yeah, but shouldn't your automated build "cruise control" send you notification once it does the build when someone checks something in ;)

Of course I'm just being a smart a** thanks for the tip off I will definately check this out.

Jim - Hehe, yes it should. However, I don't use CommitMonitor for home because, well, being the only one checking stuff in I *know* when I check stuff in :-) But for work, CommitMonitor is extremely useful.

I was just gonna say the same thing, if you have a good CI setup like Cruise Control you can configure it to send out an email every time a build occurs (which is usually after a check-in).
