[$] NonStop discussion around adding Rust to Git

Linux Weekly News - Fri, 11/22/2024 - 11:13

The Linux kernel community's discussions about including Rust have gotten a lot of attention, but the kernel is not the only project wrestling with the question of whether to allow Rust. The Git project discussed the prospect in January, and then again at the Git Contributor's Summit in September. Complicating the discussion is the Git project's lack of a policy on platform support, and the fact that it does already have tools written in other languages. While the project has not committed to using or avoiding Rust, it seems like only a matter of time until maintainers will have to make a decision.

Reconfigure the Power Button in Debian

Linux Today - Fri, 11/22/2024 - 09:05

My humble Fujitsu Futro S720 running Debian makes a decent home server. But it has one weakness: the power button is too easy to press by accident, which shuts down the machine. I know that, because I’ve done it several times. Not the end of the world, but a mild nuisance I can leave without. Turned out, it’s an easy problem to solve.
