There is a great description for Windows users at: the urban canuk, eh: Configure SourceTree to Rebase by default
Note that this is a global setting for git (which you can override each time you do a pull). So there is no way to differentiate this by repository.
The screenshots for Mac OS X users to configure SourceTree to perform git rebase by default are these:

Somehow I didn’t get Google Opinion Rewards surveys for more than half a year. As per below post, I’ve cleared the app data a week ago.
This is a reminder to myself to check if I got any surveys since…
(Yes, I’ve location on, battery saving off and the app runs).

There are lots of old copies floating around from the Linux Storage Stack Diagram – Thomas-Krenn-Wiki.
The above link has the up-to-date version and larger versions in PNG, SVG and PDF so be sure to check it out.
The old URL was http://www.thomas-krenn.com/en/oss/linux-io-stack-diagram.html – it now redirects to the above one.
Some older copies that got me looking for the new one:

For my Link Archive via linux port forwarding to external ip – Google Search:
Need to look at this more closely, but it looks like you need PREROUTING, FORWARD and POSTROUTING and two NATs (DNAT and SNAT), as this graph from Port Forwarding Using iptables – SysTutorials shows:
PACKET IN
|
PREROUTING--[routing]-->--FORWARD-->--POSTROUTING-->--OUT
- nat (dst) | - filter - nat (src)
| |
| |
INPUT OUTPUT
- filter - nat (dst)
| - filter
| |

I had this error when building my Delphi app and needing detailed MAP files.
Somehow, then Delphi also tries to generate .drc files and fails.
Performing the “F2039 Could not create output file” drc – Google Search didn’t reveal much.
So I fired up Process Monitor and looked for file access patterns (see dump below), that all were OK.
Then I opened Windows Explorer and saw freshly generated .DRC files marked as some type of VLC Player file. I’ve had loads of trouble with VLC in the past, but I inherited this PC so I didn’t notice VLC Player was installed by the previous developer.
Lesson learned: when starting a gig, always request a fresh PC
So I uninstalled VLC Player and now everything works fine.
Oh btw: .DRC files are Delphi Resource String files.

I will probably need this again somewhere in the future: An exponential back-off implementation I used somewhere; probably room for improvement, but it works good enough.
It’s Delphi, but I’ve not seen practical implementations in C# either.
(the updated version thanks to Anders Melander).

This is still one of my gripes from Visual Studio: when a changeset is linked to an incorrect work item, you still have to change this from the work item side:
You cannot change it from the changeset UI, but you can change it from most work item UI’s. You can just add a link to a the specific changeset and the changeset will show the link as well.
You have to be careful with the steps too:
If you do it in reverse order, and get the changeset number wrong, you will have an orphan changeset.
