I wonder how many programmers out there have intentionally set out to subtly sabotage the system. Anyone doing that, good luck to you.

This explains what is going on a facebook.

You guys review?

@agilob code is like wine. You let it out in the cold and it gets better over time by itself.

That's nice but it goes against our quality standards and the international quality standards we are charging the client extra for adhering to, the line you're trying to merge into is stability and needs CCB approval for the merge, and the client has specifically requested only showstopper-level bugs be addressed for stability lines. You know what, I have neither the time nor the crayons to properly explain this to you, a consultant that supposedly knows the business. Pack your shit, you're gonna have a wonderful time posting this crap on LinkedIn instead. #gitshiton

The subtle Linux-flex in the screenshot.

It can work if you have a test zone and only a small amount of people work on a given code base.

Also checks to ensure the code compiles and tests pass before merging, as some quality gateway.

Probably unpopular opinion, but peer reviews are overrated. If coders are good AND know the project, the only thing you can do in a PR is nitpicking. They are more useful for open source collaborators because you want to double-check their code fits with the current architecture. But people here are reacting as if peer reviews could actually spot bugs that tests can't catch. That happens rarely unless the contributor is junion/not good.

If coders are good AND know the project

Those are some pretty big ifs.

Code review can't fix incompence though. I lost count of how many times my boss told me "review that PR well because X is not very good". Also my point is that they are overrated, not that they are useless.
