Several years back my friend Dave and I were mentoring some younger engineers, letting them know it was perfectly fine to commit Works In Progress into the dev branch if marked as "WIP:". In fact, we sort of preferred it cause then everyone could see what everyone else was working on.
Dave and I are "engineers of a certain age" and grew up listening to classic rock on KZEW and Q102 in D/FW. "Don't Fear the Reaper" was on heavy rotation on both stations. One of us said something like "Don't worry, you can't hurt the Repo and the Repo won't hurt you. Don't fear the Repo." And I think we both immediately started humming this Blue Öyster Cult favourite. It eventually grew into this.
