Saying a person doesn't know how to use git productively based on their personal github projects is simply ridiculous. Nearly everything I put on github is experimental wankery presented as a curiosity, not a release. It has nothing whatsoever to do with my ability to use git productively. I can only conclude that anybody who would make this criticism has a strong "everyone should be just like me" value and is probably not someone I'd want to work with.

And also a method for quickly sharing code or projects with friends, instead of storing them on a server that requires FTP/SSH for access. Then everyone can just browse things in an easy way

thank you. i agree.


If you have your personal projects listed in your resume - you'd better make damn sure they are at least 80% polished and _SHOW OFF_ your skills. If they are not/do not, don't list them in your resume or make them private.


I completely agree with you.
