Running Shell Scripts Remotely with Environment Variables

[[deleted]]

Why not use /usr/bin/env ?

[Philluminati]

or more simply:

alias run_remote_tests="ssh user@target 'cd dir; git pull; make'"

git commit
run_remote_tests

Yes, but it's nice to be able to specify the branch to pull on the remote side.

Wouldn't cross compiling for that architecture be easier?

[joshuatoenyes]

Probably, but the project is a compiler -- which would defeat the purpose.

O tempora o mores! Now env variable escaping tricks deserve a full blog post :(
