3mon 9d ago in git@programming.dev from git-push.appI take full responsibility for this. I thought this was a parody. I didn't think anybody in their right mind would actually use this. In my defense their page contains of fake product reviews. Anyway... It's probably best to remove this, I'm perhaps mistaken. Thanks for the warning.

Branching strategy for a text based project
1y 3mon ago in git@programming.devFor us to be able to help you, I think you need to give us some more details about the organization of your work. If each chapter is a separate text file, then you don't really need to do any branching at all (assuming people will only make changes on their own files and not touch others' work). If it is a single text file, branching (or anything else, to be honest) will not help much.
I assume chapters will have their separate files. As long as you can control who touches which file, everybody can work on the same branch (also referred to as "trunk based"). But if you fear that people may interfere with each other's work (willingly or by accident), then it makes sense to create a branch per chapter to keep contributors at a distance from each other. But working on a single repository requires some sort of an agreement on the workflow.
A second edition of clean code is being written
1y 10mon ago in books@programming.dev from programming.devThis is an acknowledgement from Uncle Bob that the book didn't stand the test of time. We won't know before the new edition is out, but I suspect those pointless refactorings will not be in it any longer.
I keep getting logged out today. Is it just me?
1y 10mon ago in meta@programming.devThis problem is now solved for me. I didn't do anything. Either a Firefox (current version 137.0.2 on mobile) or a Lemmy update (current version BE: 0.19.11) seems to have solved it.
I have the same problem on mobile Firefox on Android. I'm using the default frontend as well. This was not happening a week ago (or maybe 10 days). Started recently.
What are some good name suggestions for the rebranding of OpenSuse?
1y 10mon ago in linux@programming.dev from lists.opensuse.orgDon't they already have the names Leap and Tumbleweed? Changing the name to Leap would make sense since it's the name of the "official LTS" version. At this point it sounds like "openSUSE" is the name of the project and not the distro. But I haven't been following them closely, so perhaps I'm wrong.
Git isn't working when i clone, fetch, or push
2y 19d ago in git@programming.devNot sure but that sounds like you have a problem with your Git installation (or a dependency of Git). Maybe a reinstallation can solve that.
How Git Works (zine by Julia Evans)
2y 26d ago in git@programming.dev from wizardzines.comI understand the "why would I pay for this" reaction. I think crowdsourcing is a better approach for these kinds of content. Once you reach certain level of financial commitment from the crowd, you can give away the PDF and sell the print copy.
What were your misconceptions about Git when you first started?
2y 2d ago in git@programming.devgit branches are just homeomorphic endofunctors mapping submanifolds of a Hilbert space
Yeah, once you realize that everything falls into place.
