Get started with Git: Cloning

Git is a software version control system.  It is good because you can use it in a distributed way keeping local and remote repositories kept in sync, with multiple developers strong project history and conflict resolution.

This post describes how to 'git going' with an existing project assuming you have already Set Up Git.  We create a local version of a project on github, make a small change and bounce that back to the github master.

Unhide Android Developer Options

I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini with Android 4.2.2/Jellybean. I routinely use my phone for development purposes requiring access to Android Developer settings. Out of the box these options are hidden and you need to know how to reveal the options.

Go to Settings, More..., About Device. Tap on Build number 7 times.  You will get a little toast popup window letting you know developer options are enabled.  They can be accessed from the More... menu.
