Tru-lyfe CTO (CTC) stories:

I spelled a juniors name wrong in a commit message...

Am I an asshole?

P.S.: it was 100% fully NOT on purpose, it's just an alternate spelling of the name, i.e. Jakob instead of Jacob (not the name of course, for privacy purposes, just an example)

    You know VSCode has a git plug-in the that can help edit commit. And also git for desktop makes using git super easy. If you make mistake as long as git recognize that you are the owner of the commit, you should be able to edit it.

    @Ohiorenua None of those things prevent me from writing a typo in the message or description of the commit.

    git commit --amend?

    ...or, if it's earlier in time

    git rebase?
