The difference here is that git objects don't change. When you do a `git gc`, you do get new objects at new inodes, but they don't get written to the existing ones. Try this out and you'll see local git clones do indeed creat

I do use this, but when I'm collaborating with others, especially a lot of people, I still duplicate it across projects. It pays to be defensive and you can't always get everyone on board with this strategy. Being defensive within

The write by your shell through the redirect won't get those elevated privileges. You need to use something like tee: echo "127.0.0.1 www.reddit.com" | sudo tee -a /etc/hosts

Fun fact: you don't even need the `-n`. `git log -1` does the same thing, for any number. -<number>, -n <number>, --max-count=<number> Limit the output to <number> commits.

You're aware of the privacy implications but think people talking about avoiding people who use them are proposing dumb arguments? I don't follow your logic.
