Good.
CAUTION: SPOILER; IF YOU WANNA ACTUALLY LEARN, DO SOME SEARCHING AND READING ON YOUR OWN FIRST. kinda not really beginner, but it led to interesting vid (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zr0ypi_OZkA note: this vid had nothing to do w solving it, but it was cool to see someone who knew what he was doing work), and all it took (this time) to find solution was one search attempt ("ctf how to find a redacted flag"), which led to this article https://ericanthonygroves.com/2022/09/27/ctflearn-git-is-good-writeup/ which gave this command: git log -p which solved it ez. hint: if writing command prefaced by path as given in article does not work, use ls -al to find the right directory; once in the directory, use the git command by itself to find flag. for the true nubes (no judgement cuz I'm still one myself): first download Mega zip file, then unzip file, then use the guidance above.
Very helpful writeup! Any thoughts on having a writeups tab where users can post actual writeups for other users to read when they are struggling?
i think im going to do it, on my telegram channel @reznov0x
This is a really good reminder for everyone working with Git that once published, the history is visible for everyone.
If you are new to Git and solve this via command line - git log, git checkout, a bit knowledge about detached HEAD state (remember its written al caps ;-) and cat are your friends.
i like the ones that teach me something new
This will force people to really understand some important things about git.
What happens in git, stays in git
