Unless I'm working on a very big project with multiple people, no one touches my branch ever so things only get pushed as huge blocks and don't expect anyone to dive through the actual branch.
I hate so much spending more time in git bureaucracy than getting things done.
In fact, I think it's gonna be one of my biggest pain points working in Nvidia.
Got any git tips that everyone might not be aware of?
My tip is fixup and autosquash!
If I'm working in a branch with many commits and I notice that 5 commits ago I made a tiny mistake on commit 'abc123' then I'll just do `git commit --fixup abc123`.
It's similar to `--amend` but you can do it for any commit.
At first this would be a separate commit. But next time I wanna rebase I'd just do `git rebase -i --autosquash origin/master` and it'll be squashed into abc123
Some article that explains further details:

After discovering I had been unaware of this for years I figure there must be other similar useful git things I might be unaware of
