I used to use it to make sure I made progress on projects my aim was I would do something everyday. Some days I did very little other days I did alot. I stopped caring about that approach. I got a bunch of stuff done but really I ended up making one line changes just so I kept my streak and I technically did something.
- TOGoS 3y agoSame, except I found that even the one-line changes just to have committed something were useful for keeping me in touch with whatever project I was choosing to work on. It also gave me extra motivation to fix relatively trivial problems that would otherwise annoy me a little but not enough to otherwise justify the effort to `cd $project_dir && git pull && nano $relevant_file && make test $$ git commit`. A lot of unit tests and documentation improvements got written this way, a few minutes per day.
