My favorite use-case for AI is writing logs

I'm more of a mercurial guy (since 2009) and I honestly never understood the success of git with its total nonsense of options, UX and documentation. Each command does too much thing and has different behavior. Type git diff -x and git switch -x in a non-git repository and check the output...

I love OpenBSD and I'm really interested in got for several years. I just hope that this https://framagit.org/stsp/got/-/blob/main/got/got.c?ref_type... gets removed at some point.
