WP Git Updater

Display Git Status is a pretty simple plugin, all it needs is access to the <code>shell_exec</code> function and to be pointed at a git repository.
The plugin will not perform any state altering operations, it accesses the repository using read only methods to fetch information like branch name, last commit and status.
When the git repository is located (defaulting to <code>wp-content</code>, or overwritten via a setting) the plugin will add a new admin bar item with the git icon and the current branch name.
When your site has untracked changes the menu items background will turn red.
This is ideal as it gives you a small marker directly in the admin area that some changes have been made which you probably need to look into.
Additionally when accessing the plugins admin page you can see the result of the <code>git status</code> command, and the last commit applied to your site.

GitHub Gist WordPress Plugin allows you to embed <a href="http://gist.github.com" rel="nofollow ugc">GitHub Gist</a> snippets with a [gist] tag, instead of copying and pasting HTML. For example, to embed the <a href="http://gist.github.com/447298.js?file=github_gist_wordpress_plugin_test.txt" rel="nofollow ugc">github_gist_wordpress_plugin_test.txt</a> file from <a href="http://gist.github.com/447298.js" rel="nofollow ugc">gist: 447298</a>, fill in the id and file attributes in the [gist] tag:
[gist id=447298 file=github_gist_wordpress_plugin_test.txt]
or
copy the embedding JavaScript code from GitHub and directly paste it in the body of the [gist] tag:
[gist]<code><script src="http://gist.github.com/447298.js?file=github_gist_wordpress_plugin_test.txt"></script></code>[/gist].
The [gist] tag also expands the content of the embedded Gist and wraps it with “<code><noscript><code><pre></code>” so that search engine spiders, users with javascript disabled and users reading your blog through RSS will still see your code in a blog entry.
