Torvalds didn’t seem to have a very high opinion of it 😂

    I’ve initialized repos and committed smaller first commits though. I’m not sure I follow this argument.

        Yeah I mean I’m not saying it’s not true, I’m just not following your argument for why it’s true.

          Context. I was replying to this comment claiming it was “probably” using VCS.

          It was probably initially developed using a different VCS (e.g., svn), and when git became feature-complete that “svn” history was imported into git.

          I thought explaining it was only a tiny project at that point would be enough.

            I know the context, I followed the thread, and I understood your argument to be that it was only a small project (you mentioned LOC).

            But then I presented a counter argument that I’ve made repos for less code than that, so I don’t see how that’s an argument for “obviously” not using a VCS.

            I sometimes feel like people throw around the term “obvious”. 🤷‍♂️

            To me it wasn’t obvious because of my personal experience.

            You didn’t use that term, but I feel like you presented your argument as an obvious fact. If you know what I mean. 😁
