    I don’t get why they have so many generated files checked in. Like changing that seems like a no brainer. If they can be generated then just gitignore them and call it a day.

    This honestly feels like it’s presented by someone with Stockholm syndrome. What major advantage is there over having multiple, more manageable repos? From the blog, it sounds like it’s just extra challenges and more complicated on-boarding.

      versioning and version dependencies are more manageable.

      idk why aren’t they using git clone --filter to clone a part of the repo and/or git sparse-checkout or at least git status . while in the subdir you are doing your work. what’s the point of doing git status on the whole thing if you’re working in a dir?

    yeah feels like git’s being crammed as some kind of deployed prod tool and too afraid to move away from it

    Sounds like the kinda stupid and time consuming that Mozilla is into
