Do you swear in your commits?

from the self-post dept.

I find that when committing to non-workplace git/svn/tfs/etc, I swear a LOT in my commit messages. My working theory so far is that it's the testosterone from fixing x or putting the finishing touches on y, etc.

Do you find yourself doing the same thing?

Never.

Not in work, for obvious reasons, but also not in non-work code, because my non-work code is seen by a lot more people than my work code, so I feel its even MORE important to act professional there. I also never swear or joke in comments either.

Honestly, I think swearing in commits/comments does nothing to benefit you/code/commits/project.
