In case you are using a typical Git workflow, where merged branches are removed from the remote repository (e.g., GitHub, GitLab), you may find yourself with a lot of stale local branches that have no upstreams.

A common suggestion to clean up these local branches is to run:

git fetch --prune
git branch --merged | egrep -v 'master|dev|main|staging' | xargs git branch -d

This command works only if you use a merge (not rebase) strategy and it only deletes branches that have been merged into your current branch (for example, you are in main now).

What is Weenie Hut General Messaging Protocol (WHGMP)?

WHGMP is a message protocol which uses 2 Discord bots and 9 channels.

(pssst... click here to see a more detailed project, with the main bot in addition to the messaging protocol)

How does it work?

WHGMP uses the read/unread badge* in a channel to represent a bit (unread = 1, read = 0). By using 8 channels, one byte can be stored.

The sender waits for a message from the user, then begins to send messages to the data channels. After storing a single byte, a message is sent to the "clock" channel, letting the receiver know to check the read/unread status. Based off of that, a single byte is constructed. When a null-byte is received, the resulting string is printed.
