PPC: pure ruby `rake test` fails
Reported by seydar | November 28th, 2009 @ 05:46 PM
We have a bunch of errors here: http://pastie.org/718298
recreation:
rake build
rake prepare; rake test
rake clean
rake prepare; rake test
A bunch of errors. After previous exploration in similar bugs, if we can fix #8 and #9 then most of those errors would go away.

This appears to be specific to Tiger/PPC/32bit computers. Maybe others though...

Big-endian specific.
Still looking at it, but priority is low.

We fixed this. Turns out big endian systems weren't being properly identified.

Rethink Version Control.- http://amp.carboni.ca/
Amp aims to put control of version-control software in your hands as a developer. The entire system is written in Ruby (with C extensions to improve performance), and aims to implement all major VCS's in Ruby. Currently, Mercurial is implemented.
Other features:
Commands are first-class members of the system - drop in an "Ampfile" in your repository, and you can add commands to amp in the same manner you add commands to rake (only with far, far more power!)
Documentation is one of our biggest priorities. We require all methods to be documented - even comically simple ones.
Heavy testing.
Multiple "workflows" - use git's commands to power a mercurial repository.
Add hooks/callbacks in minutes.
