Git 3.0 is coming. SHA 256, Rust, and the biggest change in a decade.

hey have u guys been following the Git 3.0 stuff

theyre switching to SHA 256 by default and making Rust a core dependency. first major version bump since 2014.

the reftable storage backend sounds interesting too. supposed to be way faster for big repos.

been using git since i started coding and honestly never thought about what happens under the hood. kinda cool to see a tool this old getting a real overhaul.

not sure how i feel about the Rust dependency tho. anyone know if itll break CI pipelines?
