Comments become stale and will often not be updated as the code changes.
- MrBuddyCasino 8y agoThis is what code reviews are for. Why would you exclude comments from that? It certainly doesn't happen in our team.
- patrec 8y agoComments often refer to stuff that's not directly in the "review window" i.e. the actual diff plus additional context you'll see in a typical code review setup. So even if people are conscientious about reviewing comment changes (and absence thereof!), too this often gets missed.
