I wish I had time for that.
Maybe my explanation was complicated, but what I describe is not time consuming. It takes at most a few minutes to do all of the things I mentioned. The difficult part is discipline of keeping refactoring separate. Once that's done, the rest is trivial. And not all work include refactoring. That's even easier then.
Discipline is definitely tough. I have tried looking at rebasing tutorials and it always looked pretty tedious to do, hence my comment about time constraints. I should really give it another try though.
Interactive rebase is used to organize (squash, drop, reorder) commits and with some experience is totally painless. Would definitely recommend watching a few videos about it.
I used to find rebasing annoying until I started using lazygit. It makes it really easy, now before opening a PR I just interactive rebase on top of latest main and I can easily clean up my commits before opening the PR.
Sounds interesting, I’ll check it out! Thanks for the link
