is it able to actually discern the order in which the code was written? would be cool if not to augment it or create a parallel to to actually track this in the manner the code author actually did to write the code - I wonder which functions he/she went to, how he/she wrote code, how long they paused to think, and even what they were thinking!
How is it more helpful for debugging compared to just looking at the git patch? As far as I can tell, this is meant to be more of a cool presentation type thing, rather than something to assist with development
Yeah, sounds like something I'd use along with Gource for presentations - gource is great for "show off our progress in the last year" in a Very Visual way (without actually being all that useful, but sometimes you need some non-technical visualizations.)
Pretty graphics and visualizations help people understand things because humans aren't LLMs. The web didn't have to evolve past having one font, black, on a white screen, but it did, because people aren't robots.
This is cool! It feels fresh and new.
Suggestion for the related projects section: https://gource.io/ Tree view visualization of git history over time.
This looks really cute. I wonder if it'd help with reviews when people have strange PR's
Exactly my thought on this.
I like it! It's a neat idea :)
Actually, looks really cool! Creative idea.

This is insanely helpful for debugging other people's code or code you've long since forgotten.
