Anyone knows if a git (partial) rewrite has been attempted in Rust yet?

Might be worth a shot — should be similar performance with stronger guarantees, and last I checked git was a cesspool with bash and Perl mixed in all over the place.

There’s a project called gitoxide, though I don’t know whether its goal is to rewrite git itself.


Why not a formally verified git, then, using Ada/SPARK? :)
