Which opensource software does everyone use but you absolutely loathe it?
@nixCraft systemd and git. They are nearly everywhere I need to collaborate with other people/teams and it is always painful. Always find it weird these projects became more popular than the better alternatives.
@distrowatch @nixCraft to be honest I kinda like git. At least it's much better than svn or clearcase..!

@melroy @distrowatch @nixCraft svn never fucked itself so badly I had to delete my local copy, download a fresh one, and manually make my changes again. Git does this several times a year.

I'm so happy to hear I'm not the only one.

I remember when I was learning git everybody said it was super flexible and you could recover from any mistake you made. This may be true but what they don't tell you is that usually it's a lot easier to start from 0 again.

@pinguino @falken @distrowatch @nixCraft I'm curious what you did that require you to fully need to delete and do a new git clone.

Maybe skill issue 😏?
