Summary

  • When people talk about code reviews, they focus on the reviewer.
  • When your reviewer expresses confusion about how the code works, the solution isn’t to explain it to that one person.

  • If it’s a small set of changes, that’s fine, but too many of these sprawling modifications can make the changelist enormous.
