I know nothing<p>Today's been one of those days where I wish we were using anything other than <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/perforce" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>perforce</span></a> for version control. This thing is broken beyond belief. Working on several changelists? Sure, but don't create new files, shelving them and reverting the changelist doesn't remove the newly added file from the filesystem. Which breaks <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/ceedling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ceedling</span></a>'s automatic test discovery. The work around is to rename the test_* file with some other prefix manually. It sucks.<br><a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/versioncontrol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>versioncontrol</span></a></p>
Alanna 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️<p>The next person who advocates that "Perforce is more user friendly than Git and better for artists." to my face will get a custard pie in response. It really isn't any different to any other VCS is terms of complexity and arguing that it is "user friendly" compared to git is just lies.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/versioncontrol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>versioncontrol</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/git" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>git</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/perforce" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>perforce</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/software_engineering" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>software_engineering</span></a></p>
