  • Basically the company is “losing” money every time someone claims the promotion because they are giving their service away for free.

    Normally, companies will have a good estimate on how many people will make use of the promotion and how much money they will “lose”, but sometimes the reality exceeds expectations and so they put a cap on tbe number of times a promotion can be claimed so as to not get exploited too much.

    Btw I say “lose” in quotes because it may not be an actual loss of money but a loss of potential earnings from a customer. Also, don’t worry about the downvotes, I’ve seen many innocuous comments also get a few downvotes for no reason.

    “Changes” encompass more than you think. Creating / Deleting files are also changes, not just edits to a file.

    • If the change is an edit to a tracked file, “Discard Changes” will reverse the edit.
    • If the change is deleting a tracked file, “Discard Changes” will restore it back.
    • If the change is a new untracked file, “Discard Changes” will remove it as intended.

    It can also be all of them at the same time, which is why VSCode uses “Changes” instead of “Files”.
