clones a gist.github.com or bl.ocks.org url without having to wait for the laggy gist.github.com page.
Install:
npm install -g gistclone
Then, copy the url of a bl.ocks.org and run:
gistclone https://bl.ocks.org/1wheel/76f1f3330b09f5efa0b36fb2b9782e4f
This looks up the description of the gist and clones the gist a folder with that name:
git clone git@gist.github.com:76f1f3330b09f5efa0b36fb2b9782e4f.git ${description}
Options:
--https <https> - clone over https instead of ssh
- gistup is super handy for creating gists from the command line.
- gistsnap snapshot thumbnails for bl.ocks.org
