Today, we had a fire alarm going off at @tudresden when I was just working on a local repo.

This reminded me on the popular meme:

In case of fire 🔥

1. git commit
2. git push
3. leave building

I always had some mixed feelings about it. Thus, I wrote down whats wrong with this meme on several levels (technical and social):

https://cknoll.github.io/git-fire-en.html

The essence is to create a #git-alias 'git fire' (consisting of multiple commands) to:

- create a new branch with an unused name,
- add every change to the staging area,
- commit (including message)
- push new branch to remote

Also: helping to mitigate fire damage to humans and infrastructure should be preferred over antisocially running away 🏃‍♂️‍ ("leave building")
