Query: “What are the most common pain points with Git for developers in 2025?”4/5/2026

A common issue I have encountered revolves around asynchronous code writing to a synchronised data folder. That is, any user may be on any commit and run a program (say ADSL) on that commit. This will update the synchronised data folder so that all other users are now reading from that version of ADSL.

One of the main challenges faced by JavaScript developers when debugging asynchronous code is dealing with concurrency issues. Asynchronous tasks can run in parallel, making it difficult to predict the order in which they will be executed. This can lead to race conditions
