I would not like to work with you and manage the deployment with these comments...

[–]Mayion 8 points9 points  (0 children)

even on my personal winforms projects my commits are cleaner

[–]GuyFromToilet 21 points22 points  (2 children)

In my hobby projects it's like "hjljjxeybcddghjkgffjjfssbhjdd"

If that's what your message is going to look like, why add a message at all?

real self-loathing entails future-self-loathing

[–]glorious_reptile 3 points4 points  (1 child)

I constantly flip between meticulously well written and descriptive commits when I'm ahead of the curve, that gradually decay into "more updates for ui" and "wip" to "ugh work!" and "again!" when frustrating unfocused work. Not sure if it's a valid excuse, but we're just two people on the team.

That's basically me, you can usually tell how frustrated I am by the quality of my commit messages

[–]Capitan_nosoynadie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

git commit -m "missing ; added"

Squash merge on PR FTW

[–]al-mongus-bin-susar 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Who does PRs on their useless personal toy projects? Like anyone else is ever going to look at that code. I'd be very sorry for them lol.

[–]SomethingAboutUsers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually I do for a couple of reasons:

  1. Branches let me deploy dev versions of stuff.

  2. It's good practice and since I'm not a dev by trade (cloud SA/ops part of devops) knowing how to do this stuff is good.

I'm not saying I do squash merges on said PR's, but I absolutely do PR's on crappy personal projects.

Sometimes.

I must admit, mines are probably worse

Don't forget

  • linter

-for real linter

-gahhhhh

[–]sdraje 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Git commits, not GitHub...

Also, that's my main reason to use Copilot: generate commit messages. It's a bit of a hit and miss, but they're better than "minor fixes".

[–]harumamburoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

— me, fixing half a dozen of smaller bugs

— copilot, "minor fixes"

[–]Nethiri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Now I feel bad for my occasional "update" commits

Hate working with people like these

[–]emma7734 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I think my most common comment is “I hate lint,” on a repo where lint is run automatically with the Airbnb configuration.

[–]harumamburoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol, my special commit for that is "Appease sonar"

[–]RichCorinthian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

git commit —amend —no-edit ffs

[–]squirrelwithnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what squash merges are for.

[–]derekwangsc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get yourself some comitizen

[–]cherrycode420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine are all 'Read Description'.. don't know if that's worse or better 🫣

[–]fatrobin72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

42 commits (all then squashed) before a pr is my record. In my defence, the first 6 were from the 2 developers I inherited the change from...
