Dev.to is a community platform for developers, offering resources, discussions, and networking opportunities to empower individuals in their coding journey. Developers can learn new programming languages, frameworks, and tools, engage in discussions on best practices, and share their experiences with fellow developers to enhance their skills and grow their professional network.

A developer built a delayed commit feature for GoCommit after an interviewer questioned their GitHub commit timestamps during work hours. The tool allows developers to schedule commits outside restricted hours, addressing privacy concerns and work-life boundaries. It intercepts commits during configured work hours, presents alternative timestamps, and uses Git's native date flags to set both author and committer dates. The feature integrates with GoCommit's AI-powered commit message generator and raises questions about whether coding schedules should be public information.

<p>So… basically a fake alibi for moonlighting? I don’t see how this is ethical</p>


<ol>
<li>commit to a private repo any time.</li>
<li>add scheduled git action on private repo to update the work repo outside work hours.with some tweak to add randomization on when to schedule it.
3.profit!</li>
</ol>
<p>yes this can be used to cheat :3</p>
