How would reflog help without a ref having been created?
And I just don’t know what’s special about “this morning” in your sentence. If theres some important intermediary state you’d like to keep track of, by all means commit it. But to commit just because the day has ended is odd to me.
- AlotOfReading 2y agoGoing to blame sleep deprivation for that one. Took your comment to realize reflog wouldn't help. To give a recent example, I was fixing a cryptographic function and had a bunch of constraints in my head. Dumped that into comments and didn't read them carefully enough the next morning. Immediately wrote a change that subtly broke one of those constraints. Having a restore point was helpful. Similarly, I can also say "this experiment I've been pursuing for a couple days went off-track, let's reset and take advantage of hindsight". It's not something I use frequently, but it's convenient and free.
