it happens too often that after I push something the next commit is something like "I am an idiot" 😑

Write that to the first commit. Then you can write "I told you so" to the next one.

@electrineer 🤔 that is something i would likely consider

Been there, done that. git commit --amend is your friend 😉

@PuzzlesDev :O I should read the docs. there may be more useful commands I do not know of.

@nebula it won't help you if you already pushed, unless you are into overwriting the history on the remote server

@electrineer nah. if it remote i would not rewrite the history.

i aim to use git hooks to at least force myself to run unit tests prior to pushing stuff. but i work with visual studio and i have not found a pretty solution to force git hooks (like having them organized in the repo and to be executed on client without additional config). Therefore i have it ingored completely until today.
