Tagging at the end Vs. Tagging incrementally
Closed this issue · 4 comments
Dear teaching team, as I was working through the iP, I decided to complete all the levels in 1 go and forgot to tag, commit and push incrementally. Can I instead commit and tag just Level 3? Otherwise, I would have to go back to "regress" my work just to execute the incremental commits, which can be quite a hassle. I understand and acknowledge that it is my fault for not reading the instructions clearly. Let me know what I can do in this situation and thank you for your help.

For the future increments, please follow the right process of working on increments one at a time; commit small, and commit frequently.

No, you are expected to create all the tags as we use it for self-declared progress tracking

No need! as demonstrated in the lecture last week, you can tag previous commits to indicate Level-1 and Level-2.
However, if you have only one commit (see the first point above, first😄) you can add the Level-1 and Level-2 tags to the same commit (git allows you to create multiple tags for the same commit!).
Thank you for the reply. Painful lesson learnt!
No damage done for now. So it shouldn't be painful 😄
