Gitdot is an open-source, anti-AI Git hosting platform written in Rust, presented as a better alternative to GitHub.
What works now: user signups, org creations, private/public repos, and importing GitHub repositories (both as read-only mirrors and full migrations). So basically, you can create, push and pull to a repo, but we don't have many features quite yet (issues, PRs, CI).<p>What is a bit unique is: 1) we built it in Rust and 2) the website is a little odd. Its design is inspired by CLIs (e.g., fzf, broot, vim) instead of web apps, and as such, lacks some affordances that you might typically expect in favor of keyboard-driven instant navigations (we have the very ambitious goal of an FCP of 100ms). In case you're curious, here's how we we built it: <a href="https://gitdot.io/designs">https://gitdot.io/designs</a><p>We recognize that we're making some bold claims here and are also well aware that we have much to learn. Building software is still hard, and that's a fact we seem to relearn everyday.<p>But we wanted to share what we built so far nonetheless.<p>Cheers, thank y'all for reading, and till the next

re_gent is an open-source version control system for AI agent activity, tracking every tool call and associated prompt so developers can audit and roll back agent changes.
The article details Grit, a new Rust reimplementation of Git that passes over 99% of the Git test suite, created using AI agents. It aims to provide a library-based, memory-safe alternative to the original Git.
The article discusses the growing dissatisfaction with GitHub's reliability and proposes Tangled, a decentralized Git forge built on the AT Protocol, as a promising alternative that combines centralized convenience with user-owned data.
