alt Hacker News> intent(auth): users need social login, starting with Google before GitHub and Apple
Your 'intent' is 'users need social login'? That does not make sense.
Your intent is 'Getting more users by lowering barriers to sign up', a business goal. That business goal might have hierarchical children – for example, Jira epics – such as 'offer social sign-in', or 'declutter landing page.'
Also, the commit mentions 'Google before GitHub', but how can a commit (a snapshot of the repository) know the future? What if your product manager decides Google is fine enough and GitHub/Apple aren't needed?
I wish our profession would stop trying to reinvent issue tracking in git every week.
I understood the example, and it could be a minor hiccup there, but the essence is different:
By having a structured context of the key session discoveries, decisions, rejected items (if there were past commits with decisions that had been rejected, etc..) you achieve a type of contextual storage of the reason, thus after a month, when a team member wants to start working on a task that you have touched, and now forgot since you are doing ai-assisted coding and pr throughput is to sky right now, your collegue at least will know the rational behind the decission and working with his agent, the agent will produce more reliable code not introducing something for the sake of solving the task.
