In this case, it was more of write the X language compiler using X. I had to prove to myself if keeping the session made sense, and what better way to do it than to vibe code the tool to audit vibe code.

I do get your point though

If you do not sync them you have no knowledge of their existence.

I did work around squash to collect all sessions and concatenate them as a single one

We are a dying breed (I hate it). I went against my own instincts and vibe code this, works as a proof of concept.

You can see the session (including my typos) and compare what was asked for and what you got.

Six months later, when debugging or reviewing history, the only artifact left is the diff. So I built git-memento. It attaches AI session transcripts to commits using Git notes.
