git gud - Gamedev Tournament Crisis

GameDev Tournament Crisis is a themed challenge pack for git gud that drops you straight into a development crisis at Fishagon Studios. The championship tournament build is due in one hour, the engineering team is panicking, and the game engine repository is in complete disarray. You are the emergency Git consultant nobody wanted to call, but everybody needs.

This content pack features a curated set of advanced, story-driven Git scenarios built around a fully simulated repository and command-line environment. Each challenge mirrors real-world Git problems, wrapped in a game development narrative that reinforces why each operation matters and not just how to execute it.

Across six escalating challenges, you will:
Rewrite history to remove a leaked API key from past commits

Perform a squash merge to keep the main branch clean

Cherry-pick a critical fix without pulling in unstable experimental changes

Track down a physics regression using git bisect

Clean and reorganize commit history with interactive rebase

Manage staging, stashing, reflog inspection, and .gitignore under pressure


Like the base game, GameDev Tournament Crisis implements Git behavior as faithfully as possible, including history rewriting, commit validation, and interactive workflows. Solutions are not abstract puzzles, they are real Git commands applied in realistic situations.

In the base game players are introduced to the filter-branch command. This time around, Fishagon Studios' engineering policy requires the use of the modern alternative solution with filter-repo.

This DLC is ideal for players who already understand Git basics and want to build confidence with intermediate to advanced workflows, all while saving the tournament one commit at a time.
