"Never had a PR over 300 LoC that didn't look good to me".
We've all been there. The PR is so big you don't even bother commenting. It's already too late to build the quality in. You make a sad face, comment "LGTM", and click approve.
That's still the case in lots of teams. However, it feels like after a long time the industry, on average, learned the value of the Small Batches idea from #Lean applied it to PRs.
But, here's the surprise.
What if we told you that teams doing small PRs (with async code reviews) actually have way lower throughput than teams doing big PRs.
Join Chris and Austin as they discuss with Dragan Stepanovic the insights on throughput, engagement, and quality of PRs that he has gathered from analyzing the data in 30+ active repositories. In addition, we chat about the parallel universe of ways of working where you get to have your cake and eat it too. Where you can have both throughput and quality. That universe is called co-creation patterns (Pair and Mob Programming).
