    it doesn’t create ‘Volume’. it does bare minimum, only 1 commit per day even that in case i haven’t committed anything on that day.

    Is it really that bad? i thought it might be a good idea.

    I guess i should just private it and make another copy which people can use that doesn’t actually commit to my account.

      I think you made something “innocent” in intent without understanding the effect or impact it may have.

      I presume you think having a longer commit streak is something that’s valuable, noteworthy, or shows some meaningful characteristic.

      While potentially a seemingly harmless ideal, it says a bit about your lack of experience in the workplace and sets up a slippery slope to a toxic paradigm where programmers are expected to maintain commit streaks as part of their evaluation.

      This is not a place you want to work and it’s not an expectation you want to hold yourself or others to.

        It isn’t the case, Having a completely green graph feels more satisfying than having empty dots in between my graph. i guess i will remove it.

        Since i wrote it i know commit graph can be tampered with and doesn’t reflect anything valuable.

          At the end of the day if you want a completely green graph, you clearly have a mechanism to do so.

          The point I’m trying to make is, having said graph will likely cause you more harm than you think, especially if you think “green squares” = “more likely to be hired for a desirable job.” It simply opens the avenue to questions regarding your intentions.

          What I’d ask you to reflect on is, why does having a solid green graph feel more satisfying? What makes it so?
