Wow. So much hate in the comments here. Of all the funding / equity events lately, I wonder how this one gets so much doubt and distrust from the start.

If this isn’t something to at least root for, in the sense of a small team, novel product, serving a real need, then I dunno what is. You can use jj or tangled and still appreciate improvements to git and vcs on the web in general. Competition amongst many players is a good thing, even if you don’t believe in this one particular vision.

Heaven forbid it isn’t 100M going to a YC alum for yet another AI funding raise.

There is nothing inherently special about the straw that breaks the camel's back.

Why do they need $17m to build this? Vibe code it in a couple weeks, ship it.
