Why HN links it
Nathan Chancellor's blog, linked in a GitButler thread. The one comment discusses bisecting in rebase versus merge workflows and does not mention the blog, so the subject of the posts is unclear from the comments.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 1 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.
