Possibly Deep Thoughts

I’m working on some code where a previous has used capitalized variable names. This is extremely unsettling. I keep ask myself “why is he passing a class here?”. That distinction between class and variable names must be deeply ingrained.

There are also methods with capital letter. I keep confusing them with constructors. I can deal (barely) with irregular formatting and spacing. How hard is “space after keyword” to remember anyway?

These non-standard names are freaking me out!

git add --interactive allows me to select individual patch chunks to check in. This allows me to check in separate changes in different parts of the same file. This is good when I forget to check in after finishing one thing and moving to the next.

git also has lots of ways to change what was checked in. I fear those commands!
