This is a quick pointer to the 25% off sale that Creatable is offering on the Tower git client for Mac. Tower is my favorite Git client, and repeatedly one of my top apps, but it’s a steep price at the current $79 US. This link will bring it down to $59.

I thought I’d share the script I’m using to generate changelogs for Marked releases using git commit messages. A lot of it is tailored to my own setup, and would require some customization to make it work with a different workflow. Also, it’s messy code, for which I apologize. Ultimately it should have just been a procedural script, but I started to go somewhere else with it before I realized that wasn’t what I was getting paid for.

Another in my irregularly-update series of Marked 2 tips and tricks. There are a lot of document navigation features in Marked, and many that have evolved since the last time I wrote about this. This particular tip is about Marked’s special tools for navigating long documents.

I had the pleasure once again of joining David Sparks and Katie Floyd on Mac Power Users episode 390. While we’ve discussed tagging (probably every time I’ve ever been on the show), it’s been years since we dove deeper into the subject.
