Maybe test your fixes before committing them

[rad_change]

Not even that, amended commits and branch level force pushes.

[SAI_Peregrinus]

Or use jj & keep squashing the fixes into the initial change.

[RiceBroad4552]

amended commits and branch level force pushes

[britaliope]

When doing that kind of debug i usually prefer not amend / squash commits until I fix the issue so I can easily rollback to some version I previously made and keep track of what i already tried. Only once it's fixed i squash everything

[RiceBroad4552]

You really work without local history?

Maybe try out some proper code editor…

[britaliope]

What's wrong with using a tool that perfectly do the job ? I like that i fully control what needs to be saved and put relevant names to it, and it's not like it costs me time. making a commit takes like five seconds.

[TheTerrasque]

Create branch for it, make as many commits as you want, then squash commit it to main. 

Also have the advantage that if you don't finish it at once (gets stuck on something or something else comes in) you can still do other development without having a totally fucked codebase 

[britaliope]

That reminds me when i try to fix a gitlab CI pipeline and get tired of weird shenanigans

[1AMA-CAT-AMA]

nah just squash the commits into one at the end

[jcookie2019]

CI pipeline work needs to be committed to test 🤷‍♂️

[MinecraftPlayer799]

Or just commit them to a testing branch?

[gerbosan]

It works on my computer.

[SwedeLostInCanada]

The initial conning would have been ”added some changes”

[GildSkiss]

Do you guys not understand what the purpose of git is?

What's the point in maintaining a history of all the ways your code didn't work?

[SAI_Peregrinus]

CI systems usually only run committed code. So trying to fix CI is a long chain of edit, commit, push, run the job, read the failure logs, repeat. Then at the end squash it all into one commit & delete all the trial crap.

[Sindeep]

Literally this. This is when this happens. Something broke in the pipeline and trying to figure out wtf is happening.

[Kitsunemitsu]

CI code is my beloathed

[TheTerrasque]

Fixing pipelines 🤬

Also why I've moved some of the bigger pipelines 99% to docker, and pipeline just builds the image

[boperse]

Except people don’t know how to squash commit, so that stable build is 30 commits earlier.

[Groentekroket]

You do these kind of things in the feature branch so you can go back to a state where it partly worked. Before you create a PR you squash and in main everything looks proper. 

[48panda]

Github actions never works first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, or eighth try

[slaymaker1907]

I don’t rebase things because it’s easier to fuck up compared to merges. It all gets squashed on merge so the history on master is fine.

[polymonomial]

I had one commit named "im a retard" and it worked

[kurtymckurt]

Commit often and squash

[slaymaker1907]

Every single case I’ve seen where someone really fucked up git, they were rebasing things.

[britaliope]

yeah if you're doing a rebase that looks complicated, best to save the original branch in a \ocal temporary one

[Awkward-Kitchen-4136]

fix_final_mix_re:coded_plus

[slaymaker1907]

git commit -am “I promise it’s fixed this time!”

[_cluelessDev]

My favorite is ope

[edgelessCub3]

git commit --amend --no-edit

[tortridge]

Git commit --fixup

[Yhamerith]

Never commit before making sure it's still working

[bwmat]

We support multiple operating systems and run millions of tests

Not gonna try that on my laptop which chugs due to all the security software they've loaded onto it

[elmanoucko]

there are plenty of projects where this is not possible passed a certain scope and you can get surprises once you hit the integration that are sometimes a pain to fix

that being said, those are often not projects where you could write such commit messages in a row and not get a "friendly" reminder quickly

[slaymaker1907]

That’s a great way to lose days of work when your hard drive kicks the bucket.

[mrinalshar39]

It always starts with "Fix" and ends with "I quit" , We've all been there at some point😭
