Delphi XE 2 Upgrade Deal Extended January 19, 2012
Posted by kevinbe71 in Delphi.add a comment
Looks like Embarcadero have extended the deal to the end of January… Upgrade from any version of Pro for $499. I’ve also just finished moving over most of my projects from BDS 2006 to XE 2… A little bit of a challenge but not too bad. The biggest problem was dealing with the Unicode string and char types the were introduced along the way. Haven’t moved anything to 64-bit though… I’d imagine that will be quite a challenge!
Forced “Get Latest” Using Git January 11, 2012

If you’re used to other version control packages you may be familiar with “Get Latest” or forced checkouts etc. Well, Tortoise doesn’t seem to map this type of function… So you’ll have to delete the folder in question, drop to the Git bash command prompt and then type “git reset –hard HEAD” (there are actually 2 dashes here even though it may look like one!). That will make sure you have what’s in source control without any local changes.
