> There's the code review history, the bug tracker, the code comments, and the actual documentation. All of which are probably better places for real knowledge to be stored. The funny thing is that I've been through many of these systems in the past years, and each time we mostly lost all the previous PRs and comments, but all my commit messages are still there preserved in the history. These ideas are all a "better place" until it's suddenly all gone because it's not actually a part of your code history and can't easily be moved.
