Torvalds didn’t seem to have a very high opinion of it 😂

    Context. I was replying to this comment claiming it was “probably” using VCS.

    It was probably initially developed using a different VCS (e.g., svn), and when git became feature-complete that “svn” history was imported into git.

    I thought explaining it was only a tiny project at that point would be enough.

      I know the context, I followed the thread, and I understood your argument to be that it was only a small project (you mentioned LOC).

      But then I presented a counter argument that I’ve made repos for less code than that, so I don’t see how that’s an argument for “obviously” not using a VCS.

      I sometimes feel like people throw around the term “obvious”. 🤷‍♂️

      To me it wasn’t obvious because of my personal experience.

      You didn’t use that term, but I feel like you presented your argument as an obvious fact. If you know what I mean. 😁
