You've repeatedly crossed into personal attack on HN recently. That's not cool. I've banned this account until we get some indication that you've read https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and sincerely want to use HN in its intended spirit. That spirit is intellectual curiosity and kind, thoughtful conversation.

Ironically, i'm now curious about kissgyorgy's life story. How did they get so touchy?

So you never want to work with... any junior dev ever? I can't think of a single person we have hired out of college who used Git well.

I love coaching smart junior engineers, and the first thing I teach them is using Git properly and the importance of good commit messages! :)

The problem is not someone not knowing how important it is but want to learn. The problem is the people with this kind of (lazy?) attitude NOT WILLING to do what is absolutely necessary in the long term.
