Thank god you did! I’ve seen too many “make it easier for normal people” projects ruined by trying to appease people that have muscle memory for the old way.
Luckily bit doesn’t do anything that would prevent someone from using git on the same repo. You can co-exist.
I’ll make this prediction based on decades of observations:
1. There will be many projects like this.
2. Eventually one will win out and the others will fade.
3. The winner will be the one that focused on a particular audience AND successfully ignored so-called experts that didn’t see the need for such a project.
4. After one tool wins out, the nay-sayers start to adopt it. Forums like HN get flooded with posts about how “I wish I had tried it sooner”.
But seriously... if you don’t need this kind of tool do the other 98% of the world develop it in peace.
