So Software Without Incident (the site) kind of disappeared a little while ago due to some accidents while I was toying around on the server. The SVN repository’s still sitting there on my server, though, so my code’s still around. And I still pull magic_fields into my new projects. I am a particular fan of the collection handling, if I do say so myself. The name, however, clashes with a term given to Rails’s built-in `magic fields’ for ActiveRecord, things like updated_at and created_at. So I took advantage of the situation to rename the plugin awesome_fields, too, so it’s a little more distinguishable.

Anyway, I went ahead and used git-svn to pull the code from the SWI repository into a git repository and then pushed it off to GitHub. I’m more a fan of Bazaar myself (the documentation for it is amazing, and the commandset is readable; plus, there’s no required -a parameter for committing everything, which is the way I happen to work), but I know the Rails community is on git-mania now, so git it is. For the interested, it’s under awesome_fields at GitHub.

Documentation and a README await there.
