I make commits whenever I finish a feature.
He doesn't care to learn git so there's not much damage with that. I wasn't making backups other than that because it's been a solo project. I will need to be now. Or move it to vsonline(or github) so I can publish stable versions.

Give him an 'at-a-boy' at the next staff meeting in front of a large audience. Show his contribution and shower him with mock praise.
Most people will see that you are mocking him and get a laugh out of it.

Is this why he is telling you?
Is this "your" project, or the teams/company's project.
I learned a long time ago, not to get emotionally attached to "my" code, because it wasn't really "my" code. If the company decided to change 2 weeks of my work, a month later, so be it.
Also, you need to move any changes to a branched repository. I think a few people here already mentioned this.

This was really just a side note because I didn't know there were any changes being made to the code, and he worked directly on my branch.
The actual part I was ranting about was the simple things he was jumping in to do, and then taking everyones time to point out how great of a job he was doing. Him actually doing tasks is not an issue, though we should make sure we use the source control if we're going to have more than just me working on it.

Problem solved. Refresh your branch from the repository before you make any additions to the code. Just say you did it as a precautionary measure because you made a mistake and wanted to be sure you didn't unintentionally introduce problems into the code base.
That is why code repositories are implemented.
If he complains make a branch for him and then it can be decided if his changes are folded in to the final project by whomever is doing release control.

I'm cutting weight for the 27th right now. You always got to ask yourself in this situation:
"Is this person really an elephanttard sunshine, or am I just feeling the cut"?

You try to help out, then some idiot re-posts your answer whilst at the same time claiming that your answer is incorrect..
[Edit] The duplicate answer has been deleted. I love CP but the Q&A section is a bit forked IMHO - just makes it feel like it's not worth the hassle getting involved 
How do you know so much about swallows? Well, you have to know these things when you're a king, you know.

You cannot blame CodeProject for the actions of a few idiots. The majority of people posting in Q&A do try to post useful responses, and treat their fellows with due respect.

The guy had a 65k reputation and "Legend" status - my guess is by doing the same thing across CP Q&A.
It wouldn't have been quite as bad if it hadn't been an easy question - the OP just needed a second set of eyes to spot his simple mistake.

Sadly, that is quite possible.

Well I guess most of us have failed at that once or twice in our coding lives.

Some people's rep is almost entirely made up of such activities.

It's not the usual suspect I was thinking of, then.
I recently had a fairly long argument with He Who Shall Not Be Named because I'd answered the question that the OP has asked, rather than the question that HWSNBN thought the OP meant. Apparently, telling the OP that something they didn't actually ask for can't be done is more important than telling them how to do what they actually asked for. 
We're currently waiting for the OP to clarify what they meant, but I'm not holding my breath.

You're right, it takes a glut of idiots to create what's happening in QA !
«I'm asked why doesn't C# implement feature X all the time. The answer's always the same: because no one ever designed, specified, implemented, tested, documented, shipped that feature. All six of those things are necessary to make a feature happen. They all cost huge amounts of time, effort and money.» Eric Lippert, Microsoft, 2009

You will always find member doing wrong (I done some myself), but that's not CP or the QA...Do and hassle a bit more...

Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?

Agreed, but I do personally think QA is a bit of a mess.

A decent size chunk of the good people left or stopped posting - largely because of having to dealing with nonsense that goes on in Q&A.
