Ask HN: Why are there emojis in commits?
9 comments
I've seen repo's use them as a way of categorising the type of commit (don't have an example at hand), which could be a good use if used consistently and the categories fit your workflow.
I use it for a CMD Resume (https://github.com/bbody/CMD-Resume/), honestly though I can only think of one time the emoji helping me find where I broke something quickly.
I followed (https://github.com/slashsBin/styleguide-git-commit-message) but more recently started using Gitmoji (https://gitmoji.carloscuesta.me/).

After spending a great deal of time and effort in tracking down some obscure bug and fixing the code, a bit of venting using emojis is almost a reflex action.
Why do you post a random question with no examples, context, or explanation as to why it's interesting?

Why is it not possible to put emoji in HN comments?
What additional value do emojis add, that plain text already doesn’t?
Getting open source pull requests accepted is a lot like pulling teeth
I agree emoji add ~0 meaning. But the added encouragement helps me
I got DragonFlyBSD support into Zig this week. The emoji tell me that people care (Edit: thanks to them)
But HN, dunno...
Maybe aswell as points, being able to thumb-up posts could be another way to encourage people to have constructive and positive interaction?
