If something this natural requires several lines of bash, something is just not right. Maybe branches should go sorted by default, either chronologically or topologically? git's LoC budget is 20x LevelDBs or 30% of PostgreSQL or 3 SQLi

The idea of using git as a blob storage and building entire new machinery on top is definitely a worthy one. At this point though, the de-facto baseline is no doubt git. If git as a store withstands the abuse of jj and jj becomes the indust

Speaking of user friendliness of git UI. I am working on a revision control system that (ideally) should be as user friendly as Ctrl+S Ctrl+Z in most common cases. Spent almost a week on design docs, looking for feedback (so far it was very

Technically, exporting changes either way is not a challenge. It only becomes difficult if we have multiple gateways for some reason. One way to do it is to use the new system for the messy part and git/GitHub for "publication&quo

Joe Armstrong had a beautiful LEGO vs Meccano metaphor. Both things are cool and somewhat similar in their basic idea, but you cannot do with LEGO what you can do with Meccano and vice-versa. Also, you can not mix them.

(Author) In my current codebase, I preserve the whitespace nodes. Whitespace changes would not affect the other nodes though. My first attempt to recover whitespace algorithmically not exactly failed, but more like I was unable to verify it

Based on my personal experience, big-corp monorepos have all features of a black hole: they try to suck in all the existing code (vendor it) and once some code starts living in a monorepo, there is no way to separate it as it becomes entang

It depends on what you mean by a language. If JSON then yes. There are ways to implement CRDT by layering on top of JSON (see Automerge) but the result is really far from idiomatic readable JSON people expect to see. RDX is more like CRDT J

Great. But MPS is not a revision control system.

I meant specifically revision control. JetBrains' school of thought is very much AST-centric, yes.

I am working on that https://github.com/gritzko/librdx Conflictless merge and overlay branches (ie freely attachable/detachable by a click). That was the pie-in-the-sky of the CRDT community for maybe 15 years. My

LLMs can implement red-black trees with impressive speed, quality and even some level of determinism. Here I buy the argument. Once we take something that is not already on GitHub in a thousand different flavors, it becomes an adventure. Li

Yep. These things have been solved by massive investments. The question is, can WASM as a language (not an implementation) do something JavaScript can't?

That is like Linux on a laptop. When you buy a laptop, you pay for Windows anyway.

I am a big fan of Ragel[1]. That is a high performance parser generator. In fact, it can generate different types of parsers, very powerful. Unfortunately, it takes a lot of skill to operate. I wrote a parser generator generator to make i

I wonder, at which point it is worth it to make a language? I personally implemented generics, slices and error propagation in C… that takes some work, but doable. Obviously, C stdlib goes to the trash bin, but there is not much value in it
