In software development, the code review process stands as a crucial checkpoint for ensuring code quality, fostering collaboration, and promoting knowledge sharing among team members. Despite the importance, many engineers lack a clear mental map of how effective reviews work. This is my attempt to help code reviews and reviewers improve.

Whether you’re steering an open source project or leading full-time a software development team, the key to maximizing productivity lies in efficient code reviews.

    Yeah, or sprint to your colleague and ask them to force push their branch again :D

    Another tactic for for getting clean git commits is to do all your messy commit work in a scratch branch, and then when your happy, create a new branch, and with meld, organise your changes into complete logical commits. We do that a little bit.
