You can stare at that code all afternoon but you won't spot the bug until a microsecond after you hit "commit".

I'm not sure I understand, what's wrong with this commit?

[-] mexicancartel@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 7 months ago

1 change, forgot to enable the setting previously

~~Whoever committed this change thinks updating the text on the UI for this system will automagically fix issue.~~

~~It’s like editing the HTML on your bank’s website to show you have $1B in the bank 😂~~

Issue here committer forgot to update UI to expose the feature person was working on

No, the settings already existed, they just forgot to expose it

[-] malloc@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

That makes sense now. Thanks for extra context.

(Here's some more context: The button is in the UI, but it exposed a completely different function than advertised, probably due to being generated from copy-and-pasting the previous button)

[-] Amaltheamannen@lemmy.ml 5 points 7 months ago

Yeah without more context it just seemed they were renaming the setting as part of a larger diff

[-] Aatube@kbin.melroy.org 1 points 7 months ago

It says "1 changed file..." at the top

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

I'm not convinced that's it, but I don't know enough to explain why.
