Git is used by hundreds of thousands to millions of humans on a daily basis. It manages most of the popular operating system code and compilers and without git, CI/CD would (arguably) be where it was 20 years ago. Git is part of a critical supply chain, including automation, to deliver software to production servers and edge devices.

I hereby strongly support Junio's continued participation and hope he is not disheartened by the OP request.
