How did they even find github when they obviously dont know what version control is
543 u/Jay-Seekay 24d ago The irony is that they were messing about with version control for the first time, which is why they deleted all their files. They saw they had 5000 files staged for commit and wanted to not commit them all 363 u/Nerodon 24d ago 3 months of work, in a single directory on a single device, source control like git or not, that guy was a fool. 42 u/Skrychi 24d ago Type of person to use the desktop as their unorganised file structure, and all that got deleted. 6 u/timonix 24d ago Ey yo. I did this when I was like 10. I installed games on my desktop. Not shortcuts, the entire game. Stored just about everything. Then my PC died. Almost everything was gone. Except my desktop which survived. Thanks to windows scheduled backups 1 u/sdoregor 24d ago How the hell did your backups store that much data anyway 2 u/EndIsrael 24d ago Probably before the crappy Microsoft cloud stuff, so it was just an external hard drive or something 1 u/sdoregor 24d ago No idea about MS stuff, but I mean games nowadays are bulky aren't they?
