For any data engineer, Azure DevOps is a must-have skill that helps with streamlined CI/CD processes, efficient version control, and collaborative project management. However, while working with it, there can be situations where data engineers make significant mistakes that affect the project. Recently I uploaded a video on my 𝐘𝐓 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐥 where I have addressed two commonly made mistakes while working with Git repositories in Azure DevOps, and how to handle them effectively:

𝐌𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 1: 𝐏𝐮𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐮𝐧𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐌𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐡: One of the most common problems is accidentally committing and pushing incorrect changes directly to the main branch. This can disrupt the workflow and potentially introduce bugs into the production environment. In this video, you’ll learn:

✅ How to create and work with feature branches to ensure changes are isolated and reviewed before merging

✅ The importance of meaningful commit messages for better tracking and understanding of changes

✅ Step-by-step instructions on how to use Azure DevOps to revert a commit, restoring the main branch to a stable state

𝐌𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 2: 𝐀𝐜𝐜𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐃𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐡: Branch management can sometimes be tricky, leading to accidental deletions. This can be problematic, especially if the branch contained important code that hasn’t been merged yet. In this video, you’ll learn how to:

✅ Identify and locate the deleted branch using the commit history and branch name

✅ Restore the deleted branch using Azure DevOps, even when it seems permanently lost
