Comment on Always commit

  I would lose max 3 hrs of work that I already know how to re do. I can live with that. I don’t want to publish unfinished work. There is always the chance someone might need the branch.

    Why not? Do you push directly to master?

      Because someone else might need to work on my branches. And I don’t want garbage in my history. There are case I might not be able to squash merge, so all my history will be in the project history. I want each commit to be clean. It is not a lot of effort, and force me to increase code quality, because I review my code more often.

      Rules for all projects I manage: never rebase published branch and always publish clean code (even implementation is unfinished).

      From experience following these simple rules make the whole project management easier and more effective

    Same here. At least for me, the hard part is figuring out how to do it.

  Don’t you have continuous backups of your work laptop!?

    On one occasion i had to take over a task from a colleague while he was on his day off. He did not push his changes. I am sure he had backups but when i asked him to push his changes he had to drive home to do it.

    I’d rather company IP stays on its git server.
