I would not use this except to help us test it if interested. I'm announcing it because it's interesting and a milestone in the breadth of test coverage it can pass. It almost certainly cheated on a bunch of those tests and is not feature complete yet.

The author of gitoxide is also working on GitButler (who worked on this project) and we're pushing both projects forward and actively using and developing Gitoxide as well. This is simply a different and hopefully complimentary approach to the same problem.

Sorry, no. Let me be candid and point out that this has achieved exactly nothing except lighting $8k on fire.

Put it this way: if I suggest to my boss, "I want to spend $8k of company money to port git to Rust to just see how many tests can pass in that project, even though I don't plan to develop new features with the project, and I don't care about adoption", he is going to shot down the idea in half a second and seriously question my competence.
