Cake day: June 15th, 2023
  • git is like a minefield. stray away even a little bit from standard path and you are done for. I had git multiple times throw some obscure errors at me when trying some commands and then trying to undo/recover. how’s “undo” is not a git command I don’t understand.

  • deleted a chunk of my work the other day by pressing Ctrl z in windows explorer. my project was without source control installed (cuz it was in Dev stage), and Ctrl shit z/Ctrl y hotkeys didn’t work, so that chunk was just gone, persished forever… or so I though. I remembered vs code having a file history under some panel. found it, and here it was - at least some of the latest history of my file. lesson learned: even in Dev where nothing is yet working, finish your day of coding with a commit to a remote repo.
