Git Most Wildly Accepted Bad Pattern

🔑 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐭𝐡 𝐢𝐬, 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐨.

It's much better to commit frequently as you complete meaningful chunks of work, but you don’t always need to push right away. Instead, try pushing after short breaks—say every 1-2 hours—when you have a logical batch of changes ready to go.

Let’s be honest, I've found myself using generic commit messages like "added some changes" which is vague and repetitive. To make your commits more useful, focus on 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 you changed and 𝐰𝐡𝐲.

If that sounds tricky, don’t worry—that's where 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐬 come in! With a simple extension for VS Code, you can standardize your commit messages to look cleaner and more professional. Examples:

feat: add user login functionality fix: resolve issue with payment gateway refactor: optimize database queries
