WoW Source Code Turns One Million

but you’re underpaid :frowning:

mad respect for you guys. yall have great passion. i love you devs.

Congratulations! But now I’m super curious what that one millionth change did? We periodically note when we hit a PR number of note at work too, and it’s always amusing to see what these milestone commits are actually for.

(I also jokingly wonder if it broke Yogg-Saron, who seemed to spend a lot of WoD and Legion malfunctioning when entirely unrelated things changed.)

Lol I find this hilarious after reading the article on Blizzard employees receiving less pay.

You are not wrong at all!!!
Technically speaking Blizz CAN say they are right now in the mega-commits (10^6 1,000,000 = Mega) but Mebi-commits would be the equivalent of 2^20 (1,048,576)

It’s Subversion all right, makes it even more impressive

That’s awesome! Maybe this gets you enough honor points to get a store mount.

Wonder if they’d ever migrate to Git.

You can have a fully awesome and enjoyable job with crap pay.

maybe…but a good pay acts as a motivation to perform well.

Oh crap, congratulations everyone! Last year at my work my team checked out the initial commit in our primary repo and it was quite the trip.

Also I can’t help but think of the mega-commits as a fun callback to RIFTS and it’s mega-damage system. Thanks for ensuring WoW isn’t hitting that point!

Hopefully a pay increase…

Least its not yanderedev code. I don’t understand a lot about coding yet I can look at that guys work and go “oh no…”

All those code changes and I bet they still haven’t fixed fel rush dc.

Slow day at the office huh

Fixed a poop quest

Mostly I was thinking they were using an old style centralized repository, and they’d be better off using a distributed repo like Git. It would be a pretty big money saver on a project like this.

To celebrate this maybe you could make the repo public to show us the 1-millionth commit? :innocent:
