Part of this process, especially for new team members or junior devs, is to signal that, yes, we take typos (and formatting, and proper grammar, and the style guide, etc) seriously. I could fix this myself, but I shouldn't need to. We all make mistakes, but too many "small" mistakes is an indication of sloppiness. Is this actually a mistake? Or were you just being lazy?
Agreed. In my team I am known for being extremely meticulous about this, and some people don’t like it. If I see one or two typos or spacing issues, I understand that’s an honest mistake. But if I see typos, spacing issues, bad indentation, bad naming, etc. all over your diff, I can’t help but think you’re sloppy. If you don’t care about the little things like properly formatted code, I have a hard time believing you care about the big things like error checking and proper test coverage.
