I needed to get an existing Git repository to a client that had a tightened network. No SSH allowed, web proxy filtering out all sorts of sites and also performing a HTTPS man-in-the-middle to detect and reject all kinds of binaries, etc.
But we needed a public repository locally.
Which worked, thanks to pestrella , who answered about `bare` repositories to get my last steps correct:
In order to create a new Git repository from an existing repository one would typically create a new bare repository and push one or more branches from the existing to the new repository.
The trick is to know that server-side repositories are `bare` and client side repositories are `regular`. `bare` means the absence of a working copy on the server side.
I performed these steps:

There are differences between the encrypted Google search at https://encrypted.google.com and the ordinary HTTPS Google search at https://google.com :
Originally, the regular Google.com and http://www.Google.com usage was without HTTPS, and encrypted.Google.com was using HTTPS.
Even after HTTPS support was added to all Google subdomains there is still a difference in the referer handling: encrypted.Google.com is much safer .

Inversion of Control example video on YouTube : business class is not in control of the DAL.
It uses C#, but the code is so simple that every programmer should be able to get it.
Uses:
interfaces
parameter passing through constructor
moving control decisions out of the business class
Inversion of Control (IoC) can later be amended by Dependency Injection (DI), but IoC can easily without that be used very effectively without DI.
I wish the What is…? series had more than 1 episode, but Christian Richards does have some interesting series about game development .

Inspired by CloudFlare Keyless SSL , I have this idea of using Diffie Hellman over WebSockets over a MittM based http proxy (which intercepts and decrypts HTTPS traffic ) like mitmproxy (but them from a commercial vendor to inspect web traffic) to setup an encapsulated secure channel.
I know SSH uses Diffie Hellman to setup a secure channel over a binary TCP connection.
Binary communication over HTTP usually means WebSocket .
I don’t want WebSSH (which does use WebSockets, but is probably filtered by the MitM proxy anyway).
Maybe either of these open source tools will work:
If these don’t work, I need to do more research.
Since I use C# and .NET for much of my work, I started the WebSocket over HTTP C# query.

Graeme Geldenhuys posted a great comment below.
Summary:
Git can do SVN, so locally you will see it as a Git repository, but the SVN repository will stay “as is” and not be affected neither will other SVN users be affected.
Two of the great benefits of this:
You have fill local history so no need for long server-round trips to access it.
You have the full query featureset of Git at your disposal. Locally.
Combined, you can do these without the need to be online or wait for the SVN connection and transfer:
For instance to view your branches :
git branches -vv
Or to show the branch-history :
git show-branch
It is how I access the FastMM repository from Git and described the git commands on how to get started and keep up to date .

A few tools that help you watch changes in html pages, even these pages do not have RSS: they make a feed out of a page.
