Ask HN: Waht makes the SQLite code base so special?
I consistently see people citing SQLite as one of the "best source codes" out there. What makes it so great?
- leed25d 5y agoOne thing I like about it is that it uses the fossil scm. Fossil scm tracks files, not content (as git does). This property makes fossil an ideal scm for doing some kinds of static code analysis which need to track files across a history of renames. Try that with git.
- cpach 5y agoI guess their approach to testing is one of the qualities that makes it stand out https://www.sqlite.org/testing.html https://www.sqlite.org/testing.html
