Be...before I go. Could you approve all my experimental PRs?
Real story, I have a branch that's been open for four years at my company to add support for nested postgres transactions. It works flawlessly... but we, the senior devs, are uncertain if it's a power that would be used responsibly by the juniors. If I'm going to walk into the light, I'm going to make sure there's a badass explosion behind me.
I'm in the niche of niches by using vsc with a vim plugin while being a dvorak user. I rely on vim's langmap feature to get anywhere, but people implementing vim emulators blissfully ignore accessibility like that. So I went and implemented langmap in vsc's vim plugin myself. It has minimal intervention into the existing codebase and a bunch of other people have been wishing for this for years. Yet, when it comes to merging... Silence.
IMPORTANT: For those who are downvoting, yes, my entire comment is sarcasm, lol! Do not ever do anything like this in a shared repo, ever! If you actually do this in a shared repo, your access will likely be revoked the moment someone sane and competent realizes what you're doing.
Addendum: In that alias, I would've used left angle bracket instead of cat, but apparently lemmy scrubs those. I even tried the entity for it, but no go for either.
