Hi all,

just stumbled upon an awesome talk on "Git and GitHub secrets" [1].

The talk mentions a lot of not so well known features in Git(Hub).
Just some things I wasn't aware of so far:

* press "t" on a GitHub repo page for the file finder which allows to
quickly open files (press "?" for all commands)
* subscribe other people to pull requests/issues: put "@username" into a comment
* see what has happened since last 5 days on master:
https://github.com/hibernate/hibernate-orm/compare/master@{5.day.ago}...master
* record and reuse conflict resolutions: git config --global
rerere.enabled 1 (haven't tried that yet, but it sounds interesting
e.g. for repeated rebases of long-living branches)

All in all a really worth watching.
