#Amalgamated hosts file
This is a nice project i came across on hackernews from Steven Black
This repo consolidates several reputable hosts files and merges them into a single amalgamated hosts file with duplicates removed. I didn't know i needed this until i used it.
Simply clone the project somwhere on your machine
git clone https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts.git
Usage:
You can create a custom host records, place them in file in myhosts. The contents of this file are prepended to the amalgamated hosts file during the update process.
Provide a copy of that new hosts file, and place its update url in update.info. The updateHostsFile.py routine will automatically refresh the hosts file from source each time a new amalgamated file is generated.
python updateHostsFile.py
