Thanks for sharing this. I like what the author did, they pursued a goal and kept working at it, until they found a balancing point. I think my experience in similar pursuits would have led me to stop very early on - 31.4 MB is already pretty good, to be fair. Looking at the amount of potential maintenance required in the future, for example if the original ugit tool starts to need more dependencies which then have to be wrangled and inspected, makes me think that the size I didn't reduce is worth the tradeoff. Since the dependencies can be managed with package managers, without having to think too much, and as the author says, Linux is pretty awesome about these things already.
