After a lengthy fight, I finally found a semi-sane way to manage multiple user profiles in Git. It's not nearly as easy as it should be…

Thank you! And I completely agree that secrets.yml is a win.

I'm really surprised I don't see more Emoji in HN post titles!

Thanks! Updated.

Makes sense, now that it's the new convention. Thanks for the comment!

Figaro is certainly usable without Heroku. It added some Heroku conveniences later in life, but is built to simply populate ENV while keeping source control clean.

Thanks. Quick and dirty is the key. And Airbrake is great for failures, but does it support uptime monitoring like Dead Man's Snitch does?

Not quite because the summary could change to nil, but it brings up a good point. There's often a better way in Rails, but &&= is native Ruby so it's especially useful in non-Rails applications.

Thank you for pointing this out. Addressed in the comments: http://collectiveidea.com/blog/archives/2011/06/21/the-billy...
