Merging failing tests so everybody else has failing tests and wastes time figuring out why.
Nothing neutral here
I haven’t played DnD in like 20 years. Is “Chaotic Dickhead” an alignment now?
That's basically just chaotic neutral
That's what the pipeline is for. It's not that hard to pinpoint the commit that lead to the errors.
If I rebase my branch with main I do not expect any failing tests. If you waste my time merging shit code, fuck you. Fix your shit.
Unless prod is on fire and the CEO is prowling (even then, I'd argue standards should be maintained)
I don't say this is good practice, you shouldn't even be able to merge to main with failing tests. I've implemented an emergency flag to do this, but I don't want to use it in normal, daily business.
