Description
See #8. We didn't end up incorporating Maria's advice into the code check guide. She wrote:
I worked by myself on a code-check, and I had many different do-files that corresponded to different stages of cleaning several modules (ie stage1_module1.do, stage2_module1.do, stage1_module2.do, etc.). What was helpful (and I didn't start off doing this) was to commit every time I completed the code-check on one of the dofiles and note the changes I made in the commit message. That way, it was easy to cross-check dofiles for the same module/stage of cleaning across survey rounds. The changes that I had made to one round likely applied to another, and this way they were easy to see and implement. What I had done prior was to check all of the dofiles in a particular subfolder (ie. round1/stage1/...) and then commit. This was perhaps more efficient in the moment, but then I had to do some digging to find the changes I made to individual files (so in the end, I didn't save time).
Let's add it!
