- conradludgate 1y agoHard disagree. I've found this way of working benefits both me and my colleagues. I'm able to work on long lived branches without getting into conflict hell because when I rebase, I'm only dealing with small conflicts. I'm able to slim down initially large changes into smaller total diffs because I realised one change wasn't actually necessary, but only because I took the time to reflect on the code and separate the concerns Being able to separate your code into smaller units is a really great tool, and helps you really understand your own code changes in a new light. Amusingly despite me often rewriting the same code 3 times, I feel like I've never been more productive (and no, I don't use any LLMs)
