Goddamit... It's ref log, not re flog. I thought this was related to blame and never touched it lmao
I guess "git sanasaryan-han-torture" was an overkill sometimes...
Re flog is when your devs don't follow your guides and mess uo git history again.
I legit thought it was to publicly call out a user to be (metaphorically) flogged
And while it's not how I do things, I totally understand the impulse. Tell me that doesn't sound like something that could exist
Knowing that
git blameexists, and Linus in general, indeed agit flogisn't that improbable.
