Short TL;DR: nothing burger
Longer TL;DR: Linus sees bad changes to the git tree by Kees Cook that he interprets as being of human origin and intentional, calls them "malicious" changes and orders that Kees Cook's privileges be revoked. Turns out that the "git-filter-repo" tool being used was actually the culprit as it is very powerful and incorrect usage explains the changes. Discussion then moves toward implementing safety checks in the tooling. Kees gets his permissions back.
Cook's razor: "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by screwing up

You mean "using git." It's the only piece of software that I hate with Oracle. Jujutsu is a breath of fresh air and I can ignore that git ever existed.
git is genuinely one of the best tools ever created. It is an extremely simple idea with crazy effectiveness and a reasonable UX that is a bit off putting at first but makes a lot of sense later on.
That said, I'd genuinely be curious what you think jj has improved upon git.
The command line of jj makes sense and is easy to understand. I have to use graphical git clients because I want to cry every time I have to use its CLI.
That's interesting; I find the git CLI pretty intuitive especially for basic use cases most people would need, but I've also used git for 15 years now.

You might be the first person to ever say that! How do I delete a remote branch?
