Tips on handling challenging comments on your PR
summary
Practical tactics for surviving painful PR feedback: break big changes into split large PRs and logical commits, write clear commit messages so reviewers see intent, keep each PR focused on a single concern, avoid accidental removals like avoid removing secrets or passwords, mark stylistic changes optional or separate, respond to comments quickly and record decisions, treat comments as opportunities to improve the code not personal attacks, and prefer small runnable demos when a proposed change is unclear.
