This is @nprofile1q... being asked to revert to the pre-vibe rsync in Debiam.
@nprofile1q... plans to switch to openrsync in Alpine.
Important decisions to be made here.
It‘s about trust, not technology. rsync has earned trust over the years. Now it has increased changes using Claude with no second person reviewing.
That people feel uneasy about this, for a tool that copies exabytes of important data every day, is very understandable.
The LLM is the minor player here.
