      My Git history is a mess because I use Githubs online editor, as I still struggle with git and ssh setup. Tbh should be done now, but too lazy.

      Get on my level XD

      I used to be, but once I started doing a commit each feature I got in the habit - it’s great when you fuck something up and need to see how you did it before

      On solo personal projects I’m much worse, because I’m not afraid to rip it apart and put it back together on a whim…I usually go in with a goal, but then I might decide “this design isn’t going to work much longer, let’s rewrite this”, and 8 hours later I’ve made a bunch of improvements. Maybe even the one I set out to do

      When that happens, I do like Minecraft - I give it a name.

      And since the people I work with never read commit messages, after I list the changes I remember off the top of my head I sometimes do some creative writing. Sometimes I put my next plans to lay them out, sometimes I write about philosophy, sometimes I go on a rant about specific criticisms of the language or vent about how this was so much harder than it should have been. Occasionally I write a haiku

      It’s so much easier to keep up with it when you just have fun with it…I just treat it like a reflection exercise
