I'm out of the loop. What's the story here? Why are devs sad about Atlassian and Jira?

Jira has some asinine design issues, e.g. the only way you can link a git commit to a ticket is by putting the ticket ID into the commit message, generally has confusing choices for UI, code blocks {code}are annoying to add{code} and don't follow any existing conventions, integration with Confluence sucks, basic functionality is locked away in paid extensions, the list goes on

If you're an emacs user, I can't recommend magit [1] enough. I was a diehard CLI user and had flags and aliases out the wazoo, and it was still a step change in usabilty and power for me. Staging hunks, rebasing, and stashing are all vastly easier. Amending or editing a commit is a breeze, and it's tied in to all of the other emacs tools you already use, e.g. org-mode to boot!

Seeing a former coworker use Magit in Emacs is what got me to look into the Vim version: https://github.com/jreybert/vimagit From what I gather it's nowhere near as feature-complete, but it lets me create commits with immense ease and precision.

Did you try this yourself? Because I already tried it and it didn't work. Remember I said I'm on Windows.

Yes, we do this for our release builds, including Windows. It does only remove the leading prefix (GOPATH) from panics, not the full file path. I don't think there's a way to remove the whole file paths other than replacing strings in the compiled binary. In our case GOPATH was the only sensitive part (since function names can't be removed either, for reflection to work). We also couple it with a defer handler to obf…

Personally I prefer to alias git to g, then setup my aliases in gitconfig. https://github.com/GitAlias/gitalias g f && g rom git fetch && git rebase origin/master You could go nuts and make it even shorter with https://github.com/thoughtbot/gitsh gitsh > f & rom

I personally prefer to use a combination of a foot pedal and eye tracking cameras to enter a Reed-Solomon code of taps and blinks uniquely mapping to git commands.
