    What I want from a version system is to capture event in history not like changes as a files but as events that capture a process. If I split a file in two I still want to be able …

    During the AI layoffs they’ll be the first to go and we’ll be back to the always working bread winner dad. Not saying I like it, just saying that’s my read of the tea leaves.
