        @thomasfuchs this is what happens when you1 feed git-flow and github's own docs through a plagiarism machine.

                    I have so many question right now.

                    Did... anyone at Microsoft approve this chart? How come they didn't notice so many glaring errors that produced by AI?

                          @thomasfuchs so much of this "article" is factually incorrect. Literally bottom of the barrel slop.

                          "A commit is a change to one or more files on a branch."

                              @thomasfuchs the longer I look the worse it gets. “Tim” had me laughing but then I looked at where they put release branches and how they ordered the tags… I am so confused.

                                      Tim seems to be going backwards. I'm going to call Tim a Reverse Engineer
