From Version Control with Subversion, Chapter 4. Branching and Merging In Subversion, a global revision number N names a tree in the repository: it's the way the repository looked after the N th commit. It's also the name of an implicit changeset: if you compare tree N with tree N-1 , you can derive the exact patch that was committed. For this reason, it's easy to think of revision N as not just a tree, but a changeset as well. If you use an issue tracker to manage bugs, you can use the revision numbers to refer to particular patches that fix bugs—for example, “this issue was fixed by r9238.” Somebody can then run svn log -r 9238 to read about the exact changeset that...

Alfresco RESTful URLs provided by Web Scripts are extensively documented, but examples are hard to come by. This makes it hard to ramp up for beginners. Here are some examples I tested on 3.4.4 enterprise edition and 4.0a community edition, with the results documented. To list the available scripts: http://localhost:8081/alfresco/service/index There's a Refresh Web Scripts button at the bottom of the page. If you add a Web Script, you need to click that button in order for the system to know about your addition.

Running " adb shell procrank ": root@android:/ # procrank ... Column Name Meaning VSS Virtual Set Size: how much virtual memory associated with process RSS Resident Set Size: how much physical pages allocated for the process. Pages shared between processes are counted multiple times PSS Proportional Set Size. Take the RSS number but evenly distribute shared pages among the sharing processes. For example, if three processes are sharing 3MB, each process gets 1MB in PSS. USS Also known as Private Dirty, which is basically the amount of RAM inside the process that can not be paged to disk (it is not backed by the same data on disk), and is not shared with any other processes.

From Android doc : Content providers store and retrieve data and make it accessible to all applications. They're the only way to share data across applications; there's no common storage area that all Android packages can access. Android ships with a number of content providers for common data types (audio, video, images, personal contact information, and so on). You can see some of them listed in the android.provider package. You can query these providers for the data they contain (although, for some, you must acquire the proper permission to read the data). Well, maybe not the only way, but definitely the only recommended way.

grep is a versatile command with many variations (grep, egrep, fgrep, then various implementations). It uses a regula expression (regex) pattern to filter input. But then there are basic and extended flavors of regex - leading to even more confusion. And, beware that there are lots of bad examples of regex in the wild... There are two critical questions to ask when you use grep: which grep implementation are you using? what is the flavor of the regex? Here are some examples for gnu grep v2.7: # Find all numbers (no decimal point), basic regex... Use the -o flag to show only the matching part instead of the whole matching line: grep -o -E '\b[0-9]{2}\b' The good thing about the gnu grep is that it...
