@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yes, this may be enough to check.
I only know this “feature” from my revision control software where I get “abort: empty Commit message” or “Aborting commit due to empty commit message” when I do not change whatever is already in there. Can be quite some text about which files changed and so on.

Yesterday I expanded the memory in my home and code server to 16 GB and wondered what I could do with all the resources this server provides me. So I looked around a bit and came across an open source program called Node-RED. Especially in the context of Smart Home and Home Assistant, I’ve heard about it a few times, but never looked into this software in more detail. ⌘ Read more
