I think this is personal preference. The first line of the git commit message is the commit subject line, and everything thereafter is the commit body.
Much like an email, the subject line usually starts with a captialised letter, and does not end with a period.

The only paid-for plug-in we have across our Atlassian products is JaM (https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.go2group.jira....) - for bi-directional synchronisation of defects between JIRA and HP Quality Center (QC). This is because it is a real cost saving for us to not purchase QC licenses for developers.
Can you clarify what it is you are seeking a report on?
AFAIK, the single-handed backhander can be hit with more power than the double-hander.
However, the single-hander is tougher to execute when under time-pressure compared to the double-handed backhand (given that you should hit the ball further out in front on the single-handed backhand, and it is possible to have a good contact later for the double-handed backhand). It is also difficult to execute well with higher balls. Given the amount of top-spin that exists in the modern game, this makes the single-hander a tough choice to stick with.
If anybody saw Stan Wawrinka hitting through Federer (my current favourite player, and arguably the GOAT) and Djokovic to claim the French Open this year, you wouldn't say that the single hander is weaker than the double-hander.
And I would suggest that Federer is the last of the great single backhanded tennis players.
* Edited to add a bit of additional info around contact points for the single- and double-handed backhands.
Agassi wasn't loud-mouthed to be exact. Agassi was on a journey of self-discovery, and wasn't sure who he was. He resented playing tennis (until much later in his career), and disliked authority. The combination of these factors came out as someone who was 'badass'.
Sampras was single-minded in his focus for achieving greatness, but he wasn't always that way. It took a defeat on the tennis court in his early twenties to give him the pure appetite for winning. Before that, he was ok with losing.
Sampras ended his career earlier for a few reasons; spending more time with his family, feeling he had nothing left to prove, and the emergence of Roger Federer!
Agassi clearly found a resurgence in his tennis once he hated it less, and having his premier rival no longer around to stop him winning Grand Slams, felt he could still achieve more.
If the article has caught your interest, it is definitely worth having a read of Pete's biography (A Champion's Mind: Lessons from a Life in Tennis).
I would add that it is also worth reading Agassi's biography (Open: An Autobiography).
Together, these books provide a unique insight into life at the top of the game - and the impact this has on their lives. As a bonus, the views are from two players who were very different characters, were viewed in the media as being very different, and brought the best out in each other.
The article makes reference to Specctr [http://www.specctr.com], which looks like an interesting tool. I hadn't heard of it before, but it is one I will be taking a more detailed look at.
Every professional team uses version control. And nothing works better than Subversion for complex commercial projects. So asitrack provides built-in Subversion integration with your repositories and checkouts.
I disagree with this statement. I have found DVCS like Mercurial to be far superior than Subversion for managing complexity in commercial and non-commercial projects. I have increased confidence in branching as branching is a first-class concept (see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2471606/how-and-or-why-is... for a good discussion on why DVCS is better than SVN at branching/merging). I also find being able to locally track changes without sharing them to be a huge benefit.
One thing that would help reduce my anxiety about inputting my email address would be to give an indication about how long development is likely to take (e.g. we anticiapte Tymeline will be ready 4 months after we have 8,608 users signed up). If you do this, it may be worth showing how many people are already signed up, so I get an idea how much longer it will be until development kicks off fully.
I read an interesting story a while ago that I wish I had read (or been advised in a similar fashion) when I was a little younger: http://sivers.org/kimo
tl;dr
“the standard pace is for chumps” - that the system is designed so anyone can keep up. If you're more driven than “just anyone” - you can do so much more than anyone expects. And this applies to ALL of life - not just school.
It is hard for me to give you specific advice without knowing a lot more details, but staying in education is usually not a bad idea if there are things you can get out of it. If you are well ahead of your peers, what stops you working in your spare time on side projects that do interest you, or brings in money?
KeePass is a free open source password manager, which helps you to manage your passwords in a secure way. You can put all your passwords in one database, which is locked with one master key or a key file. So you only have to remember one single master password or select the key file to unlock the whole database. The databases are encrypted using the best and most secure encryption algorithms currently known (AES and Twofish).
I'm always keen to manage my passwords in the best possible way, so I'll be following this discussion closely to see if I should be modifying my tools and practices.
