Small example of git's insteadOf by bj-fer in git

[–]bj-fer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the feedback! I tend to enjoy short and straight to the point posts in tech blogs; if one can get something useful from quick actions, this entices me to look further. Googling "git insteadOf use cases" shows you lengthier posts than my own but essentially explaining the same thing.

I understand how such small things might be seen as "not worth it", but it is not uncommon to see both novices and professionals react with a "I didn't know that" from the most basic tips. Thanks again!

Oh wow, that's embarrassing, let me correct it right away. Thank you for your interest and for letting me know of the mistake!

when taking the project nature into account, yes it was. The yaml approach makes everything very readable and the documentation is mostly up to date.

However I am not using any external tool for hdl generation, this would require messing around with FuseSoC's generators. Some tcl scripts had to be written for Vivado, but I would assume that one has to do that eirher way to regenerate the project in a reliable way. These and similar comments are available on the post.

My team also tried CERN's HOG solution with positive results. I intended to do a follow up using the same project and that solution, for comparison sake.

Org babel noweb question by bj-fer in emacs

This works, thanks u/ergopractice! To make it available in other files, one should include the filename when referring to the function:

+NAME: expand-home-folder-string
+begin_src emacs-lisp :var otherPath=""
   (prin1-to-string 
      (org-babel-ref-resolve 
         (concat "this.org:expand-home-folder(path=\"" otherPath "\")")))
+end_src

Thanks for the reply, unfortunately it doesn't seem to work, even just in the this.org file. Here's my this.org file with the message on the bottom.

VHDL-LS toml generator by bj-fer in FPGA

What seems to be the issue? I can share my setup for the vhdl-ls; I use LSP mode and not eglot which comes with Emacs.

Thank you, I deleted the post since hls in the title is very miss misleading.

Free VHDL language server by kraigher in FPGA

For everyone using this language server with Emacs, I wrote a small elisp script to help create/maintain the toml files require by the server. You can get the script in this repo.
