Samantaz Fox | A problem I often encounter myself is "Oh, I'm fixing this, and I see this nearby code that can be fixed in a similar way, so let put the two together". And repeat that until ending with a PR that rewrites a lot of code. | 14:03:30 |
ibicha | I'm loving this conversation btw!
On the topic of big PRs, I frequently ask folks to split things up into smaller changes, because it drastically increases the time to approval, simplifies reviews, and increases overall attention of the reviewer. I agree with MOST of what's being said here https://google.github.io/eng-practices/review/developer/small-cls.html | 14:07:16 |
Samantaz Fox | Interesting, thanks for the link :) | 14:09:18 |
TheFrenchGhosty | Samantaz Fox: If you did read everything, I hope you didn't take the wrong way what I said. As I said I personally think it's going FAR too slow compared to what it could be, but I understand why you want to do it this way (even if I wouldn't do it this way) | 14:12:37 |
