Shhh, it's ok. Don't listen to the scary lady. She didn't mean it. She's just yearning for a simpler time, from before computers.
Of all the version control systems, you're the least worst.

The git-tools package is now updated in Guix. The new version fixes the git-restore-mtime script, which is very helpful when git updates the timestamp of your .scm files, and they appear to be newer then their .go counterparts.

After carefully checking my list of stashes to see which I wanted, I stashed my existing changes and applied it with git stash apply stash@\{2\}.
Can you see the mistake I made there? It took me a minute. LOL. #git

Your current feature branch was created from main. origin/main has moved forward, and you want to replay your local commits on top of that updated upstream history.
Which sequence is the right starting point?

Octobox is the tool for developers working on GitHub who find notifications infuriating. If you don’t want to miss another mention, if you don’t want misplace another issue and, if you don’t want to manage your workflow though email: you need to try Octobox.

My self-hosted Forgejo instance has better uptime than GitHub, even including the time my cat knocked the ethernet cable out of my server while I was away...
My current flow: say I want to contribute to github.com/xxx/yyy, I:
1. Fork it to github.com/aaccioly-open-source/yyy
2. Two-way mirror my fork to my personal Forgejo instance
3. Only come back to GitHub to open the final PR upstream

The most useful "hack" to me today:
git diff --name-only | xargs rg 'TODO'
Find todos only in the unstaged files in a git repository, using ripgrep instead of grep. I leave TODO marks for things that I need to come back to before finishing a pr or commit.
