Yes, as a consequence of how aggressively transparent to the postgres wire protocol pgbouncer wants to be. This article does a good job explaining it: https://www.augusteo.com/blog/how-pgbouncer-works

the author of this post (whom you were responding to) made `libgit`, the library that preceded `libgit2`, and contributed to libgit2 a long time ago as well. Here he is in 2010 writing about libgit2: https://github.blog/news

it's usually a "something is better than nothing" situation. If you have somebody willing to write custom release messages, that's definitely better; but conventional commits is better than nothing for it.

cross-checking your profile suggests that https://github.com/tensorzero/durable is the repo you're referring to You might consider another name for it, that one is wholly ungoogle-able! Looks neat though

I wish the article showed what the markdown format for working with typst and pandoc looked like, and what an output PDF looked like. I have no idea whether I'm interested or not from this article

libgit2 is not nearly as thoroughly tested as the git CLI is, and it is not actually hard to imagine that calling the git CLI to create new repos is faster than shelling out to a C library. Your comment does not seem to be in good faith, im

For me, it's file system latency on mac os when virtualizing that kills me. Cargo, npm, pip, etc create many small files and there's a high per-file latency on the FS layer
