We all have been there… For the beginner it’s easy to mess things up. What are your horror stories with Git?

      I was going to say… I’m pretty good with git, and rebasing still gives me anxiety haha

        Honestly I am now a huge fan of having lots of tiny repositories. It simplifies ci/cd, forces you to split code into logical blocks with stable interfaces, and limits frequency and scope of conflicts.

        Prior to rebasing I still do git tag -f undo in case I screw up so I can do git reset --hard undo if I mess up. I don’t understand reflog lol.
