To my knowledge, git 2.41 still is a piece of software written and enhanced by human beings and neither is taught something, let alone even "learned" or is "learning" something. Why on earth is git now being described as some sort of sentient, self-optimizing being? Are technical git Release Notes now being written some kind of marketing people? Bye Tim
