@[email protected] Oh my god. Did you make this?
@sigmasternchen nope, stolen from memes channel on tg
@a1ba "what did you today, dear?"

@a1ba

git rebase -i and dropping those people as next step?

@project1enigma where they will end up if you just remove them from the history though...
@a1ba other idea, rebase them to be behind the train already
@project1enigma @a1ba or just drop that fucking train once and for all

@feudjais @a1ba

But it's needed for public transportation possibly?

@project1enigma Transportation moves dangerous mosquitoes, brings diseases. Fuck it ๐Ÿ˜‚

/jk

@feudjais @project1enigma @a1ba
no train command found.
Did you mean trolley?
sudo apt get trolley
@a1ba @project1enigma You're not removing them from the history, you're creating a new history. They still exist in their original timeline. At least I hope so, for Caitlin's sake (internet points if you get it).
@a1ba git checkout HEAD^2; git switch -c clear-track

@a1ba Looks like someone didn't get the gist of a *D*VCS...

Or to say it differently: If `git rebase main` (or is your main branch still called "Master"?) causes harm to any other person, then a lot went wrong and is broken before that.

And even a `git push origin main --force` should not cause trouble for others.

and when you can do `git push upstream main --force` ... you can probably also do a `DROP DATABASE production` and again there is so much more broken.....

@heiglandreas someone is trying overanalyze a dumb picture on the internet

@a1ba this is nice and all but what about the people who checked out their branch of killing people with a trolley?

There will be a conflict they have to clean up themselves. Inresponsible! I'll say! ๐Ÿคฃ

@a1ba fuck. this killed me.
@a1ba with enough of these diagrams you could make a pretty good git manual
@a1ba what I want to know is how Phillipa Foot and Aristotle would feel about this
@a1ba is this the "merge train" thing I've heard of?
@a1ba clearly @b0rk needs to use this to help users understand how rebase works
@a1ba The Trolley Problem explained at last.
@a1ba But all those poor people are about to be in "detached HEAD" state! :(
