We asked Reddit what some of their git horror stories are. Some of them seemed meme worthy.🧵👇

"Why would they write it this way? I’ll just change it."
-every dev, at some point.

Jason Gates says you’re skipping the story. Without commit history, you’re just rewriting the past with no context.

3. Waiting to resolve merge conflicts
❌ Long-lived branches create gnarly merge conflicts

✅ Rebase often or adopt trunk-based development
Smaller diffs, fewer surprises, less pain

Your Git workflow should be automated, integrated, and built for speed.

2. Deploying code manually
❌ Manual deployments = brittle scripts, tribal knowledge, missed steps

✅ Use git-driven deployment pipelines
Trigger staging or prod releases from tags or main merges

Ship faster, safer

1. Running tests before merges
❌ Manual tests are slow, error-prone, and easy to forget

✅ Set up automated CI to validate every commit or PR
Use GitHub Actions, Bitbucket Pipelines, or your favorite runner
