Huh, that's news to me. I had to do some googling and the only one I could find was by Phalicity which seems to be from a Meta employee who left and made it into a company (a la Statsig, or to some extent Graphite)

Seems that company shutdown though a while ago and it got forked into Phorge, but either way I assume there's some divergence from what's internal at this point.

Still I'll look into it, it does look neat and might suit my preferences still. Thanks for the headsup :)

I loved using sapling / mercurial so much at work that I ended up using the sapling SCM vsc extension at home all the time for personal work.

Only downside is that Phabricator is not open source so viewing it in most things sucks. Hoping now I can get a much better experience

What are with these comments? Did no one even read the article. Not once is composer 2, or kimi, or anything mentioned... because the article is about Composer 1.5.

I mean sure the techniques are probably the same in 2 but its not like they're exactly advertising composer 2 here lol
