If you've ever royally fucked something up in git, that hotline is necessary
How dare you! First of all, it's a beautiful distributed graph theory tree model...
I have been that friend from the alt text at every place I have worked. I shudder to think how they're going about their projects without me, now.
I'm kinda planning on teaching my team how to use interactive rebases to clean the history before a merge request.
The first thing they'll learn is to make a temporary second branch so they can just toss their borked one if they screw up. I'm not going to deal with their git issues for them.
Never understood why this is such a trope. There's very little you can't recover in git (basically, only changes you never committed in the first place).
Have you ever tried a rebase?
Not sure if serious or not, but yeah I use interactive rebases every day, many times a day (it's nice for keeping a clean, logical history of atomic changes).
It's very simple to recover if you accidentally do something you don't intend (
git rebase --abortif the rebase is still active,git reflogto find the commit before the rebase if it's finished).
