Undo Mistakes 😱 git restore filename will discard uncommited change for this file cannot be undone afterward git restore -p filename p stands for patches will ask for each change in this file to be restore or not git restore . undo all changes since last commit git commit –ammend -m “Commit Message” change commit message of last commit do not change already pushed commit git revert <SHA> it reverts specified single commit <SHA> can be seen through git log, eg. 74e3b2b it makes new commit by exactly doing opposite changes, so it is very safe git reset –hard 74e3b2b it resets HEAD to certain commit in history while deleting all the commits after it if commits just local then they are gone forever git reset –mixed 74e3b2b same as previous one but it will store all the changes from the removed commits as uncommited changes git restore –source 74e3b2b filename will restore this file to certain commit (just 1 file) git reflog it is advance version of git log Restore after hard reset it even stores history for certain time after git reset --hard you can git reset 74e3b2b but creating mew branch is preferred by git branch branch_name 74e3b2b Restore after deleting entire branch look for <SHA> from git reflog then git branch branch_name 36a46a1 Moving commit to another branch if you want to move cirtain commits from current branch to new branch git branch new_branch_name git reset HEAD~1 --hard if moving commit to already present branch git checkout branch_name git cherry-pick 36a46a1 git checkout previous_branch_name git reset --hard HEAD~1 Interactive rebase is very advance, dangerous and powerful tool read comments during the process Change commit history for example if you want to change commit history upto 3 commits before current HEAD git rebase -i HEAD~3 you can change/reword commit messages, delete/drop commits, squash multiple commits together

Ofcource my notes are are derived from Arch Wiki. And I highly recommend to read it too. These notes contains all the things which i do at the fime of new Arch Installation, so it is well tested. Create Bootable usb sudo dd bs=4 if=/mnt/Tools/linux/distros/archlinux-2021.02.01-x86_64.iso of=/dev/sdb conv=fdatasync status=progress Verify the boot mode To verify the boot mode, list the efivars directory: ls /sys/firmware/efi/efivars If the command shows the directory without error, then the system is booted in UEFI mode. If the directory does not exist, the system may be booted in BIOS (or CSM) mode. If the system did not boot in the mode you desired, refer to your motherboard’s manual. ...

Duration: Oct 2020 – Feb 2021 Team Members: Rishav Singh, Kashyap Joshi Technology: Python, ROS, Drone/Quadcopter, Gazebo, Git, Linux Overview Vitarana Drone was part of the e-Yantra Robotics Competition 2020-21, an international robotics outreach program hosted by IIT Bombay. Competing against 2,603 teams from 572 colleges, we designed an autonomous drone-based delivery system to execute precise object handling and delivery tasks in a simulated environment. Project Journey Beginning Entered the competition in our 2nd year of B.Tech. Started with 4 members but 2 left in between, we try to bring em on board but it was unavoidable. So work increased on 2 people. But still managed to divide the task in smaller, easily doable parts and divided according to the skills Focused on breaking tasks into manageable parts and acquiring new skills on the go. Key Milestones Task 1: Position and Altitude Control Developed and tuned PID controllers for roll, pitch, yaw, and throttle. Achieved precise setpoint control after extensive testing and parameter tuning. Took around 5 days to study and impliment the algorithm but tuning the PID required 10 days straight. Task 2: Obstacle Avoidance Considering we were given 4 sensors on 4 sides with 25 meters range each, we searched and studied about many path planning algorithms. Implemented a 2D custom Bug Algorithm for object avoidance using sensor inputs. Designed ROS actions for barcode scanning and delivery location determination. Task 3: Advanced Pathfinding Enhanced pathfinding for 3D environments to navigate complex obstacles by changing height(throttle). Used image processing for accurate marker detection and landing precision. Task 4: Delivery Optimization Developed a mechanism for retrieving delivery boxes from a warehouse grid and delivering them to specified locations. Improved marker scanning by adjusting drone altitude to enhance accuracy during detection. Enhanced the obstacle avoidance algorithm for more reliable navigation. Despite being one day late for the deadline, implemented major improvements within a single day, incurring a 25% penalty while ensuring task completion. Task 5: Time-Limited Arena Challenge Tasked with delivering and picking up as many boxes as possible within an 8-minute timeframe, with scoring based on delivery distance. Prioritized delivering boxes to distant locations to maximize points, balancing quality and speed (race against time). We had 2 choices either to deliver near boxes first to increase number of boxes or to deliver furthest boxes first to maximize distance points. We selected the later one because our algo was taking more time to detect and land on marker. Overcame many difficulties like sometimes the markers were so near to each roof that drone scanned wrong marker sometimes. So we had to resolve the issue by taking the nearest path to the provided approx location of marker. Introduced a velocity controller to increase drone speed in obstacle-free zones, enhancing overall efficiency. Task 6: Final Round Challenge Faced a more complex delivery and pickup task with tighter constraints and only two days for completion. Focused on improving code robustness and refining interconnections between controllers to prevent errors and crashes. Documented the code extensively on the final night of submission, working under high pressure with short power naps to maintain productivity. Me and my partner waking up each other after taking 10 min power naps. Main difference between our solution and top 6 solution was that we focused more on stability over speed. Although we missed the finals, the task highlighted the importance of stability and meticulous planning in achieving high performance. Conclusion Participating in this competition provided invaluable lessons in technical problem-solving, team collaboration, and time management. Despite the challenges of a reduced team and tight deadlines, we demonstrated resilience and adaptability, balancing stability with performance optimization. While we narrowly missed the finals, the experience significantly enhanced our expertise in control systems, path planning, and autonomous systems, preparing us for future complex engineering challenges. ...
