Cursor's blog on scaling Git makes me think that Anthropic just likes reinventing the wheel with their infinite token capacity: https://cursor.com/blog/git-at-any-scale

Cursor scaled git to way more writes/s than Anthropic did with their rewrite.

Cursor shows “pushes per minute” while Anthropic shows “merges per day.” You can’t directly compare those and say Cursor’s system is more performant. Claude agents could be pushing a similar throughput of changesets into Scion, while some merge agent regularly takes batches and merges them into the trunk.
