Recovery from forgetting to add something is _much_ easier than recovery from adding some weird configuration file with plaintext private keys in it.

Recovery from forgetting to add something is _much_ easier than recovery from adding some weird configuration file with plaintext private keys in it.
- SmasherEpilepti 12d agoIt depends. I've lost hours of work after wiping and recreating a repo that had accidentally gitignored a file I was working on, and I didn't notice until too late.
- wafflemaker 12d agoI usually have *secret in .gitignore and append .secret to any files with secrets.
- LaGrange 11d agoThat's cute, too bad it's a config file mandated by your boss and it has to be called "terribletool.yaml."
- wafflemaker 11d agoNever worked professionally in programming and I was told that home projects is like child's play. Especially the humility it requires - remember being mad when my younger brother joined my Factorio game and changed smelters setup. To an actually better one - one thing when people correct your technical solutions, double so bad when they are actually right.
