Appreciate that perspective and assumed some folks would feel that way.
I am more interested in testing if folks have the problem and like the shape of the solution, before I try to decide on the model to sustain it. Open Source to me is saying -- "hey do you all want to help me build this?"
I'm not even at the point of knowing if it should exist, so why start asking people to help without that validation.
I work(ed) with OSS projects that have terrible times sustaining themselves and don't default to it bc of that trauma.
Thanks for stopping by.

- realharo 8mo ago"Local history" is a very popular feature in the JetBrains IDEs (just search HN comments), and I remember similar tools appearing on HN several times in the past (for example https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29784238 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29784238), so clearly there is demand for such functionality (or at least was in the past, when almost all code edits were manual).
