"By me." - I've been there many times!
I hate that SCM systems commonly describe who made changes as "blame" (couldn't it be "praise" for when you want to find out who wrote exceptional code?) and yet it's wonderful to be able to look back into history and see "who" was responsible for a block of code. It can be a real learning experience!
- seren 13y ago'svn praise' is an alias for 'svn blame' (or the other way round). The more neutral wording is usually 'annotate'. To be honest, I have rarely used these commands to check who had written such a beautiful code...

The lower the f*-count, the better." http://www.joelonsoftware.com/items/2006/06/16.html http://www.joelonsoftware.com/items/2006/06/16.html

- hsmyers 13y agoYou know many sites these days have various badges that you earn. I propose the addition of a badge that you admit to---the 'By Me' badge...
- kryten 13y agoIt's only blame because on the 90th time you've found a rotting turd in your 1mloc enterprise codebase that nearly shot the company properly, you really do want to blame it on that budget outsourcing outfit or the HR member who recruited that junior dev without even vetting them :) (this is what I unfortunately sit right in the middle of)
