What if someone removes "your" lines?

• JoshuaDavid 6y ago
  That is frequently very nice, because if something breaks or requirements change in code you wrote you will usually be the one who has to make the update -- if lines of code you wrote are removed, that means less code you have to worry about maintaining later. Of course, the niceness only holds if your code is being removed because it is no longer needed. Having your code removed because it doesn't work properly and is being replaced with code that does work properly is not a nice feeling.

    I'm more concerned with moving the ball forward for the team than I am with feeling good about what I did in the past. I'd prefer to do it right the first time, but given that, I'd prefer somebody make a fix that is shorter rather than one that is larger.
