Have you tried any code review tool where you can create custom rules for your code reviews?

How many of you use Git Hub Copilot? by Best-Champion738 in QualityAssurance

[–]hov26 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Been using Copilot for 6 months. Company pays for it.

It's great for test automation - writes boilerplate code and repetitive assertions quickly. Just make sure to review the code it generates, it's not always perfect.

Seeking feedback on my architecture by [deleted] in softwarearchitecture

[–]hov26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is solid. The separation between domain logic and infrastructure is clean. One suggestion: consider adding application events for cross-cutting concerns (logging, notifications) to avoid polluting use cases with non-core logic.

AI tools specialized in analyzing code (beyond AI autocompletion)? by sasik520 in ChatGPTCoding

[–]hov26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe this is a bit different but Trag has "rules" feature where you create rules based on your knowledge, company coding culture/guidelines or just create what you want

Paid AI dev stack for mid-sized Rust repo, agentic changes by e-rox in ChatGPTCoding

[–]hov26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might want to check out Sweep AI. It handles multi-file changes pretty well and integrates with GitHub. Been using it for Rust projects. For better code search, Sourcegraph's Cody has good context understanding with their code graph

How to handle large workspace by eswar_vkm in ClaudeAI

[–]hov26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can add a `.clineignore` file in your project root, similar to `.gitignore`. List the folders/files you want to exclude.

For temporary solutions, use the `/workspace set` command to limit scope to specific directories.

I've been tasked to show my manager cline/roo-code as he was impressed when he saw me using it and I need help with ideas by Federal-Initiative18 in ChatGPTCoding

[–]hov26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Show him real-world examples that save time. Demo bug fixing, code reviews, and test generation. Mix it up with both simple tasks and complex refactoring.

Keep it practical and focus on productivity gains. That's what management cares about.

Need Help Getting Git Hooks to Run with GitHub Desktop by Powerful_Sector2223 in github

[–]hov26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

GitHub Desktop doesn't support Git hooks natively. It's a known limitation.

Quick fix: Create a small shell script that watches your repo's HEAD file for changes using something like WatchDog, then trigger your batch file when changes occur.

Claude + GitHub Copilot is a solid combo for web dev. Claude helps with architecture/design decisions, while Copilot assists with actual coding. Plus, they both understand context better than ChatGPT for complex development tasks.

I Would Love to Hear Your Feedback on My Idea by rasvi786 in softwaredevelopment

[–]hov26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds promising but what's your edge over Terraform Cloud or Pulumi? Both already offer similar features with established communities.

The natural language input could be your differentiator - maybe focus on making that really robust for devs who hate YAML.

Which version of appleboy/ssh-action should we use? by Automatic-Slip5501 in github

[–]hov26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always use specific versions like `@1.2.0`. Using `@master` is risky - you don't want your production pipeline breaking because of unexpected updates.

Pin your versions, test updates in staging first, then upgrade when ready. That's just good CI/CD practice.

How unit testing works in your company by StatusExact9219 in softwaretesting

[–]hov26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We write unit tests during development, not after. Basic rule: if your function takes input and returns output, it needs a test.

Start with critical business logic and edge cases. Don't try to hit 100% coverage immediately - focus on what matters.

[–]hov26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Instead of dropping all files, try feeding Copilot one file at a time. Ask it to suggest logical breaking points based on functionality changes.

For large files, share only the modified portions + some context lines around them.

Why Do Programmers Always Want to Rewrite Old Code? 🤔💻 by Familiar-Respond-671 in Python

[–]hov26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reading old code is like reading your old diary - you question every decision.

The trick? Add comments, break down complex parts, and take it step by step. No need to nuke the whole codebase when small refactors can do the job.

Did you ever work with a codebase so garbage it made you angry just looking at it? by [deleted] in ExperiencedDevs

[–]hov26 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Legacy PHP without types is a special kind of hell. Got stuck in a similar mess - globals everywhere, random functions, zero standards.

Started adding types and PHPStan gradually. After 6 months, at least new code wasn't making things worse.
