## Why?
You've worked 8,000 million-bazillion hours on 4 cups of coffee a minute trying to fix some stupid bug. It's 2am. If it's not fixed by morning Australia will cease to be a country.
You've found it. It's in a dependency of a dependency of a dependency. You've gone one too many layers deep. Making a mirror is gonna take too much time so you just edit the code directly.
You can't commit `node_modules`. Your code's gonna be deleted.
Poof. Gone. Never to be seen again.
But **wait**.
* Wait
* Wait
* Wait
> Hold up.
There's a stupid solution. An amazing, Australia-saving, stupid solution:
```
$ quickfix push
```
Quickfix will save your changes to a `__quickfix__` folder, and then later you can run `quickfix` to update your `node_modules` with your 2am decisions once again.
Boom. Work saved.
## Installation
### Local (preferred)
```bash
$ yarn add --dev quickfix
```
Add `npm-scripts` and add `quickfix` as a `postinstall` hook in your `package.json`:
``` json
{
"scripts": {
"quickfix": "quickfix",
"quickfix:push": "quickfix push",
"postinstall": "quickfix"
}
}
```
After making changes in `node_modules` run the command:
```bash
$ yarn quickfix:push
```
To update changes after installing a workspace using quickfix run:
```bash
$ yarn quickfix
```
### Global
```bash
$ yarn global add quickfix
```
Add `quickfix` as a `postinstall` hook in your `package.json`:
``` json
{
"postinstall": "quickfix"
}
```
After making changes in `node_modules` run the command:
```bash
$ quickfix push
```
To update changes after installing a workspace using quickfix run:
```bash
$ quickfix
```
