Sapling is actively developed, not "dead after 3 months": https://github.com/facebook/sapling/commits/main/ https://github.com/facebook/sapling/commits/main/ Have not tried building Buck2 (no personal use for it), but its also actively developed: https://github.com/facebook/buck2/commits/main/ https://github.com/facebook/buck2/commits/main/

Sorry I didn't mean it's not dead but it really hasn't got as much feature support. Things like LFS support got deproritized just because the internal team asking for it got a different feature. Both are EXTREMELY active but only for the needs of Meta and not for the community. Adoption outside of Meta is nearly non-existent because of this. Look at something like Jujitsu. instead of Sapling and you can see a lot more community support, a lot more focus on features that are needed for everyone (still no LFS support, but it wasn't because Google didn't need it). I guess I don't consider a larger number of commits as actively supporting the community. The community use is second place and the open source is just a one time boost to recruiting PR.
