Iโ€™d imagine youโ€™d be hard pressed to find a non-programmer who knows what that is.

I'm not a programmer and I agree. Only after getting into 3d art I started hearing about it and I don't think I've ever used it, let alone understand it, it's the sort of thing the technical artists know about. Nobody ever suggested me to use it for my images or 3d models.

As a visual artist I can confirm the "image_final_final2_b_final" trope is as real as it gets

Use git

[โ€“] bionicjoey@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Git is used in other contexts besides programming

Not in many. And usually it happens whenever a programmer does non-programming stuff.
