I'm not sure where you get the idea that I'm not committing early?
If it was the comment saying '3 days of straight hacking' then I apologise for my prose being unclear. I was only bringing that up because my first assumption was that after 3 days of hacking I was tired and assumed it was indeed my fault.
It was a couple of hours worth of code that needed committing.
And doing a pull, which is meant to safely pull in unrelated changes, to test some things before committing, especially when it was a very simple change on head, is completely reasonable.
I'm not ignorant about the many ways in which git can be used, the post wasn't even particularly blame placing. Tools have bugs, shit happens. Most of the post was tracking down the bug, which is much more useful. Thankfully it was already fixed, so I didn't need to fix it myself.

I don't think its reasonable. 100% of posters here don't think its reasonable. You just demonstrated why its not reasonable. Yet you say its reasonable. Here's my rule for version control: if an operation can go wrong, it will go wrong.
