We could gather the answers for them upto a particular time (like 25/April or so) and begin curating the answers into a special interview for this month's edition. The questions are below. Feel free to respond with your answers to this mail thread. Let me know if I've missed to include any particularly compelling question. - What's your favorite Git trick or workflow that you wish more people knew about? - What was your worst Git disaster, and how did you recover from it? - If you could go back in time and change one design decision in Git, what would it be? - Which Git feature or improvement over the past 20 years do you think had the biggest impact on your workflow? - What Git problem that existed 10 years ago has been most successfully solved? - Which Git commands or workflows do you think are still misunderstood or underutilized today? - What's one Git based project, tool, or extension you think deserves more recognition from the community? - What Git feature or capability surprised you most when you first discovered it? - What's your boldest prediction about how version control might look in another 20 years? Looking forward to see interesting answers. :-) -- Sivaraam for the Git Rev News team.
