This summer - GIT OUT
Oh God damn you. Have your upvote and… you know the rest…
(ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻
I expected ‘git gud’
I thought this was programmer humor, not programmer horror
Another movie pitch:
Due to management decision, a code freeze has been mandated to the main branch. 50 feature branches have accumulated waiting to be merged.
Management has now finally approved to lift the code freeze - but only for 24 hours. Will the poor engineering team manage to merge all feature branches in time?
Here’s one for a TV show.
In 2022, a crack quality assurance team was made redundant by a CTO for a botched product launch they didn’t commit.
These men promptly escaped from a maximally unstable job market to the LinkedIn underground.
Today, still wanted by recruiters, they survive as soldiers of fortune.
If you have a broken codebase, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the QA-team.
DO DODO DO DOO DOO. DO DODO DO DO
You are amazing, you beautiful lemmy stranger, you.
I am ramping a vehicle onto its roof in celebration
Is there a robust test suite?
Merge, test, merge, test, patch, merge, test
Only some of the new code does. Unfortunately, most of the code base is 10 years old written in the good ol’ Anarchy Driven Programming paradigm.
If by test you mean wait for customers to yell at us, it’s super robust
Merging all the feature branches in time is easy.
Having the project compile afterwards is hard.

Merge/test/fix on a separate branch and then merge this into main when the freeze lifts?
rm -rf * git add -A git commit -m "oops." rm -rf .git git init git add . git commit -m "bye." git push origin main --forceI’m not sure about the git history wipe, I can’t test it myself right now
Just test it on production, you could do it right now
Goodbye

Unironically I think this is my only shot at getting past our code debt.
It didn’t say anything about wiping previous debt
Wdym you don’t like waiting 3 weeks for a code owner to approve a 1 line change?
“Just an FYI, you can add multiple people to code owners”
- Me, every week to that one guy
My question would be for what time zone? That seems like an important detail
Well my pull request simplified all time zones to just UTC +8:45 so we never have to worry about it again
Sweet ninjesus, i’m having a heart attack just imagining it
So the equivalente to not wanting to make part of it and staying at home is setting repositories private a few hours before and only reopening the day after?
https://www.openchaos.dev/#votes is kinda similar to, but weekly instead (voted for submissions that automatically get merged)
Every repo I can suddenly has a requirement for my $1k/license addon and won’t run without it.
What does “all tech debt is legal” mean?
That accumulation of a hundred years of tech debt during that 12h window is acceptable
Good opportunity to introduce a Cobol subsystem.
This feels like it needs a ‘Hunger Games’ add-on.
I’m not understand , what it’s mean
It’s a meme referencing the movie “the purge” which legalizes all crimes during one specific night.
Thanks
I am taking the network down at the office on this day. I have accidentally done it before and now I know how to do it again.
