How many authors have their contributions in product source code? How many have had their previous work completely removed. Over time.

The first release with code present authored by 200 persons was done in 2015-04-22. In that release, we had already removed all traces of contributions from 20 authors.

In the latest release, 604 authors' code is still present. 171 authors' work have been replaced.

@bagder I guess the "removed all traces" part is on lines most recently changed by the author, shown by git blame. So refactoring work could remove a persons contribution while their work is still providing value to curl.

It was basically a ChatGPT like message as if I’d typed the question there.

Stop 👏 putting 👏 👏 in 👏 every 👏 fucking 👏 thing!

@kev it seems like a very short sighted feature from the search engines perspective. If no one has to go to the websites, then people will have no reason to create websites with the answers, and then the AI can’t get the answer.
