That was an informative post but Jesus Christ on a bicycle, reign in the LLM a bit. The whole thing was borderline painful to read, with so many "GPTisms" I almost bailed out a couple of times. If you're gonna use this stuff to write for you, at least *try* to make it match a style of your own.
If I recall correctly, the Fossil SCM uses SQLite under the covers for a lot of its stuff.
Obviously that's not surprising considering its creator, but hearing that was kind of the first time I had ever considered that you could translate something like Git semantics to a relational database.
I haven't played with Pgit...though I kind of think that I should now.
Very cool
Technically correct title would be: s/Kernel into/Kernel Git History into/
Pgit: I Imported the Linux Kernel Git History into PostgreSQLRead the title and immediately thought "what a weird way to solve the performance loss with kernel 7..." The mind tricking itself :)

I find this hard to believe. I searched the Fossil forums and found no mention of such an attempt (and failure). Unfortunately, I don't have a computer handy to verify or disprove. Is there any evidence for this claim?
