The senior programmer at work commits so rarely that in 3 months I committed more than him in 3 years (e.g. 0 times in September)...

What’s the point of having a repo on bitbucket if most of the time the latest code version is only on his machine?
And why I have to recreate and repopulate the db every fucking time because he made so many changes to the structure, which of course conflicts with mine?

    Have a sit down with him.

    He doesn't understand version control. He needs to have training so he does, otherwise it's going to cause massive problems down the line (if it hasn't already.)

    Sounds like old CVS/SVN habits.

    "Don't commit as long as you might be the build breaker!"

    Those monster commits are always toxic.

    @Yamakuzure Even with SVN though, that's a hell of a time to wait.

    Yeah let me guess. He's just before retirement and also doesn't like issue tracking.
    Sounds like my own colleague.

    Show him branches.
