                  @thomasfuchs did they just take the original (https://nvie.com/posts/a-successful-git-branching-model/) and run it through an image generator?

                  @colincornaby @thomasfuchs I was thinking ai and with this it definitely makes sense. Plus this is likely copyright violation!

                          @thomasfuchs you know what this reminds me of? i collect random bootleg items and often times they use flavor text stolen from other things, and then retyped manually by people who don't speak english. so you end up with shit like this:

                              @thomasfuchs You're not wrong about this but, I mean, it's Microsoft.

                              Stuff that looks like this is their jam.
