schusterfredlon A Git helper tool that breaks large merges into parallelizable tasks

hey, someone actually reads the docs :D

no, the integration branch is not "broken", its just not complete until all slices have been merged INTO the integration branch - after all slices have been merged, the integration branch is complete, yet has a non-optimal history (and most likely a wrong blame because of how git resolves the blame), - therefore the "kokomeco" branch is created after the slices have been merged, - there the original intended merge is done because the outcome of the conflicts is already known from the integration + slice branch merges.

Feel free to open issues/questions in the repo if you're interested, I merely stumble by ycombinator

mergetopus is a tool that helps teams follow a structured workflow for very large merges by splitting one risky merge into parallelizable tasks:

* one integration branch for trivial/non-conflicting merge results * optional slice branches for selected conflicted files * original annotate/blame information is retained

schusterfredlon WinGet is terrible, I want AppGet back

WinGet is not a package manager. (never was, and probably never will be)

this 'old' thread still nails it: https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli/discussions/223

it's just sad.

use Chocolatey, if you can't for some reason try Scoop.
