Is that better or worse than pushing a corrupt C-00000291*.sys?
Removed by mod
Better. I’m not even sure this is bad, per se. Presumably you’re sure your present repo is trash.
Why learn how to use the entire swiss army knife when you can keep it closed to use it as a very small hammer?
I always use this command as $rm -fr and read it as remove, for real
I do write it as
rm -rf
, but then my brain always continues singing The Lion Sleeps Tonight…singing The Lion Sleeps Tonight…
“reeHEEEEEEEEEEEEEE–EE–Eaally ya-sure ya-wan-nadothaaat?”
(rm -rf, rm -rf, rm -rf)
it’s for the French locale
Hey, sometimes you need to hose out the cruft.
Why yes, I do maintain a legacy application that still stores user files in Program Files in blatent violation of 15 years of Windows best practices and continues to be done contrary to my repeated advice, why do you ask?
Another one of this kind is
rm -rf node_modules && npm install
Why not
git clean -dxf
?I guess that’s probably easier than learning how to wipe your ass.
I feel dumb: Why
git rm -rf
and notrm -rf
? O.ogit rm -rf
is only usable within the scope of the git repository and removes files in the staging area and working directory but doesnt affect untracked files or .git.rm -rf
affects everything. For this caserm -rf
probably would be the better optionedit: did a quick edit on the meme to change it to
rm -rf
since it makes more senserm - rf
is the only version that makes sense, since the only reason to delete and re-clone is to recover from an unexpected.git/
state, andgit rm
won’t remove that.Thanks
Never heard of it, makes total sense, but I’d guess 95% of developers just nuke the directory raw.
That’s the joke, yes.
ew french language pack gross
Crowdstrike?
No, not this time, at least
