Emoji description

Commit blindly

Describe the use case of your emoji

You have to commit (and presumably push) some come without any way to test it in a development enviromnent an you have to push it (and usually go through a CI/CD) and test it directily in a staging/production environment, so there is no way t know if your code really works before the commit

The dragon emoji is a reference to the Saint Seiya charachter Shiryu which has to blind himself to defeat an opponent

Is this use case covered by an existing emoji?

No ❌

Does this emoji fall into the "how" or the "what" category?

• [x] This proposal describe "why" a commit was made

Examples

Any kind of code may end here, as an example, you need to read the server url, but in production your application is behind a proxy:

public String getServerName() {
  String forwarded = getHeader("X-Forwarded-Host");
  if (forwarded != null) {
    return forwarded;
  } else {
    return super.getServerName();
  }
}

Wouldn't a white cane 🦯 U+1F9AF be more clear?

Hey!

To my eyes the meaning behind this emoji explains how you made a commit (blindly) without being able to test it, instead of why this particular commit was made.

Feel free to reopen,

Thanks

Hi, @carloscuesta when you say "Feel free to reopen" you mean "change why->how, and I may consider adding de emoji" or "being a how the emoji will probably never be added"?

Thank you

Hey!

My point of view might be wrong, so feel free to reopen the issue (ask for it/open a new one) if you don't agree with the decision that was made

Thanks!
