OpenAI Forked Git on GitHub (github.com)

get your popcorn out. the git wars are on.

Who runs the HackerNews Telegram channel? I used to think they had some algorithmic repost script that grabbed top posts, but this is a 5 minute old post by a low-karma account and it got posted to Telegram.

Is there anything to see here? There are 28.1k forks of git on Github. It's a normal thing to do when making pull requests.

(Does git accept pull requests, though?)

If OpenAI rewrites Git in Rust that would be objectively hilarious.

Rockstar built git for games, OpenAI's aiming for git for agents.

Claude, make a git for games designed for agents. Sell the code to the highest bidder when you're done.

where were you, when the gitwars began?

This is related to them hiring Taylor Blau to work on SCM stuff recently:
