I wonder if they’re working on a non git version forward looking for agents as well

This new brilliant idea that agents need something different/better than git is simply ridiculous.

The problems of scale we're encountering are because bad developers are deploying bad quantities of bad agents against bad repos.

Vibe-coded repos occupy GB of space, utterly useless PRs are opened and closed due to conflicts with other useless PRs, and it turns out git is the problem!

You're not wrong, but GitHub can only control what they can control. They cannot hold everyone at gun point and make them stop vibe coding. They also cannot shutdown Anthropic/OpenAI - you'll have to wait for their A/OAI's debts to come due for that one.

We might see real usage limits come to GH's free plan. TBH, I bet they're regretting their decision to allow unlimited private repos on the free plan, at least a bit.

		Afaik all their problems are caused by public repos, private are not that expensive.

I think humans need something better than git :)

Once they get it, agents will get it too! Eg. I'd switch over to bazaar/breezy with comparable performance to git — but mostly comparable adoption — right away.

I thought Actions (for free repos) was the main culprit, no?
