# git + webcam = lol

Takes a snapshot with your Mac's built-in iSight/FaceTime webcam (or any working webcam on Linux) every time you git commit code, and archives a lolcat style image with it.

By default, the lolimages are stored by a Github style short SHA in a `~/.lolcommits` directory created for you.

## Installation (Mac OS X)
You'll need ImageMagick installed.  [Homebrew](http://mxcl.github.com/homebrew/) makes this easy.  Simply do:

	brew install imagemagick

Then simply do:

	[sudo] gem install lolcommits

(If you're using rvm or something like that, you can/should probably omit the sudo, but the default MacOSX Ruby install is dumb and requires it.)

You're all set!  To enable lolcommits for a git repo, go to the base directory of the repository, and run:

	lolcommits --enable

Likewise, you can disable it via `lolcommits --disable`.  For a full list of options, you can do `lolcommits --help`.

## Installation (Linux)
Install dependencies using your package manager of choice, for example in Ubuntu:

    sudo apt-get install mplayer imagemagick libmagick9-dev

Then install the lolcommits gem:

    gem install lolcommits

Then you can `lolcommits --enable` in any git repo as above.

## Installation (Windows)
See the wiki page for [Installing on Windows](https://github.com/mroth/lolcommits/wiki/Installing-on-Windows).

<!--
## Upgrading from an old (non-gem) version?
If you used the autoinstaller, here's how to get rid of the old stuff (I think)

For all active lolrepos, go into them and do:

	git hooks --uninstall

You might want to get rid of the copied binary for imagesnap and switch over to the homebrew-managed version, if so `rm /usr/local/bin/imagesnap`.

If you want to get rid of git-hooks entirly (it won't hurt anything, but we dont use it anymore), you can also do:

	rm /usr/local/bin/git-hooks
	rm -rf ~/.git_hooks
	rm -rf ~/.githooks_src
