My co-worker had to add some small feature, and while at it, he thought it’s a good idea to “refactor” the entire repo.

Now the code is over-modularized and full of disconnected 100 line files, just for the sake of modularity.

Sometimes less is more

    And he wrote no unit tests? I bet I know the answer to this one!! Holy shit, that must’ve been one huge monster commit, I bet GitHub or whatever vcs you use had a stroke. I would like to see the diff on that one lol.

    Why do people go using a sledgehammer on a thumbtac?

    Does your team have a PR process or code review? It’s one thing to push a HUGE commit but changing the ENTIRE CODEBASE?? Unless it’s really small and not well established. That’s scary, I would not want to work with someone like that

    @TeachMeCode we do, but unfortunately his TL is VERY forgiving, hence the result.

    But it’s not a bad idea to actually talk to the TL

    @MaNaNa damn, bad spot to be. Did he at least write unit tests?

    @TeachMeCode he did write some, at least that part was solid and I cannot hate :)
