So you should change your terminology depending on some “how X” your workflow is? If you are working with two repositories between yourself and a teammate then it becomes “pull req…

> The expectation is that the information you get is up-to-date as of the time you started the status command, Why is that the expectation of a “distributed VCS”?

Github popularized “pull request” and I think it’s a fine term. Whether you are “actually” pulling from a different repository instead of just doing a “merge request” (idiosyncrati…

Aye thanks for the recommendations.

I use an external keyboard for my right hand and the laptop keyboard for my left so that the left one can be more straight. So that an inflammation doesn’t worsen. (This is on Ubun…

That's a different subject that my comment did not try to address.

What I said in my one-sentence-reply is that there are no non-deprecated, built-in tools that helps with this task in a streamlined manner. Which means by extension that it is not …

> Even recommending filter-branch is just aligning the footgun slightly. Who recommended it?

The rule was to not use any external tools so it doesn't qualify. But you're right. filter-repo is a great tool. You can even use pleasant Python "callbacks" instead of a hodge-pod…

Some of it might be inherent though. The data structure consists of immutable commits which are addressed by the SHA1 which depends not only on the snapshot but also the metadata a…

> Without using any external tools. git-filter-branch is the only mass-rewrite helper tool that I know of in git(1) and it's deprecated.

It's not the same thing but Git Flow reminds me of Conway's Law. Just that the branches end up representing the dev-test-release workflow. Another variation is that you reify branc…

Can’t say I find the examples motivating. Just tells me more about the author’s tastes and proclivities than the utility of all this markup.

Nice deduction with limited utility. Someone who feels alienated from others is most probably not in a place where they can just explain who they are to other people, even if they …

If you are fine with using `map` then I don’t see how this is “clever”. `zip` is basically “map2”.

What’s there to say? It works the same way as `zip` does for an iterator over a `Vec`. So if you understand `zip` as applied to an iterator over `Vec`, then you might understand `z…
