Also, would you use the phrase "wet code" in pull requests to say that the code has duplicates and needs to be dried?

We3D26712yif they don't understand it that way, you can try with 'centrifuged' for even bigger ambiguity ;)

@Lensflare couldn't come up with any. I should've also read the end of the rant and offered "reduce repetition in type X"
-
@electrineer it’s not repetition IN the type. It’s the type itself that is repeated in different namespaces :)
But good idea -
@Lensflare well then I misunderstood "dried type X" even though I knew what it meant

Do you think it’s appropriate to use the phrase "dried" in commit messages to refer to removing duplicate code? (DRY = don’t repeat yourself)
I just used it and I’m not sure if it’s ok because some devs might not understand it and the the original letters from DRY went away and became "dried" so it might be even more cryptic.
On the other hand it’s so much more concise having "dried type X" compared to "refactored the code so that it doesn’t contain duplicates of type X"
