A concrete claim: a well-crafted revision history is as important to maintainability as picking the right abstraction, demonstrated by a bug where an inefficient in‑memory sort exists because a default association ordering once forced a quick workaround. The story shows using git blame, git log -p and the pickaxe to trace the change, then using git rebase -i, amend and fixup with autosquash to reshape commits; the useful outcome is a focused history that explains the why, not just the what.
