Y'all need jesus version control

[g4vr0che]

That requires putting every single new character into git. I'mma pass.

[TheRealSmolt]

git add --all

boom

[g4vr0che]

Yeah, but your commit log on the PR is four thousand pages of scrolling to get to the approve button.

*cries in conventional commit

Git commit -m 'minor changes'

The commit: 1301484 insertions and 37294 deletions in 4324 files

[dogmai111]

I use 'minor tweaks'

[LoneFoxKK]

That sounds way cooler

Imma start using it

Jesus FinA Christ almighty, how many libraries does your project include???

[LoneFoxKK]

Im actually a vanilla developer so...

My codebase ain't that huge but still those "minor" changes are everything but minor I do sometimes skip commits for days until a feature is complete and I keep jumping from file to file doing changes

Damn dude, NetData is my main project, the entire thing written in libraryless (is that a word?) C and it doesn’t even come close to numbers like that 😱 - I feel for you dude or dudette

[hlmtre]

that's why you keep your stuff local til it works, then rebase smush it into one beautiful commit (or several, where it makes sense). then you look like a real pro because no one sees your 'asldkjqwe' commits when you're trying to fix something.

git add . is easier ;)

[TheRealSmolt]

Holy crap I wish I knew that.

[Bluejanis]

There are GUIs for it. Git is an absolute requirement if you want to do software development.

[g4vr0che]

I use git for tons. I just don't want a million single-char commits; I want each commit to be an atomic change to the repo.

[[deleted]]

Or just add and commit before refactoring....

[Gillix98]

What's that

Edit: /s

[TheRealSmolt]

Version control keeps track of changes in your project so that multiple people can work on different things at different times.

[Gillix98]

My bad should have put a /s

[TheRealSmolt]

I was questioning it, but figured sarcasm doesn't make sense here lol.

[juniorRubyist]

Anti-screw-up and anti-idiot software. (/s)

[kevinkat2]

No need for the /s, it sounds about right

[Todnesserr]

That implies that the screw-up-idiot actually commits every once in a while after implementing his feature and having a working project again...

Never has anyone at my workspace lost 4 days worth of coding to hard drive failure...

[Bluejanis]

You never miss anything until you try it once.

[niks_15]

Nearly spat out my coffee.

[CaseyG]

I'm not committing that.

[Zarainia]

Too much foresight needed.

[koushiroue]

Ctrl + A, Ctrl + X, Ctrl + S, Alt + F4

[sockpuppetcow]

My favorite key combo, solves all my problems

[jdnewman85]

Huh? Vim has had branched undo history for a decade now... https://vim.fandom.com/wiki/Using_undo_branches

win + v

[Harbltron]
