This summer - GIT OUT

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?

rm -rf *

git add -A
git commit -m "oops."

rm -rf .git
git init
git add .
git commit -m "bye."

git push origin main --force

Unironically I think this is my only shot at getting past our code debt.

My question would be for what time zone? That seems like an important detail

Sweet ninjesus, i'm having a heart attack just imagining it

So every sane dev will just sit that day out, do nothing and then once it has all blown over one of them will hard reset main to right before the silly time started. Sounds like a chill time, but not a good plot for a movie imo.

Every repo I can suddenly has a requirement for my $1k/license addon and won't run without 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)

What does "all tech debt is legal" mean?

This feels like it needs a 'Hunger Games' add-on.

I'm not understand , what it's mean

I'd rather morge continvously

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.
