minus-squareTehPers@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up29arrow-down1·1 day agoWeird cutoff on the title. This is the full sentence: Announce that Git 3.0 will make Rust a mandatory part of our build infrastructure. I’m interested to see how this goes. Maybe they could work with the gitoxide devs to see if there’s some work that’s already been done. Not really sure myself if Git needs to be RiiR, but that’s their call to make I guess.
