I think this is a fake quote that somebody made up for an Internet comedy bit, since it seems unlikely for Hollywood actress Sydney Sweeney to have such uncharacteristically strong opinion on software version control, of all things.

Because she of all people would know that there isn't anything wrong with using git merge, and it ultimately comes down to personal preference to what you are used to.

Wait a second, there wasn't even any social media sites back when Benjamin Franklin lived. Did he write that in his newsletter or something?

I think he was a senior contributor for the underground cracker mag 1600 back in the late 80s.

They called em zines.

Truly he was ahead of his time.

Margot Robbie, I was about to agree with you and thought that was a very reasonable take, until you tried to argue that git merge is better than git rebase, then I simply had to disregard the whole thing.

This is why Sydney Sweeney isn't on Lemmy.

She probably is, just anonymous. It would be crazy to expect anyone to post on lemmy under their real name.
