The branch reflog (git reflog <branchname> or git log -g <branchname>) is a lot easier to follow in the case of rebase than the HEAD reflog (which gets an entry for each commit that gets checked out / applied).

My favorite from this release.

> The built-in new function, which creates a new variable, now allows its operand to be an expression, specifying the initial value of the variable.

So no need for separate helpers anymore to instantiate a pointer to a literal.

As long as what it says is reliable and not made up.

That's why I mentioned multiple addresses. The public addresses (assigned using SLAAC or DHCPv6) are for global reachability, while you use the local prefix for stable addresses within your network.

If you want stable global addresses, you should request an AS number and prefix, and choose a provider that allows you to announce it with BGP.

The ipv4 routing table contains many individual /24 subnets that cannot be summarized, causing bloat in the routing tables.

With ipv6, that can be simplified with just a couple of /32 or /48 prefixes per AS.

With IPv6, it's common to have multiple addresses on an interface.

So on options is to assign yourself an [RFC 4193](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4193) fc00::/7 random prefix that you use for local routing that is stable, while the ISP prefix can be used for global routing.

Then you don't need to renumber your local network regardless of what your ISP does.

Instead, you get to hunt the nouns.

It affects many open source projects as well, they just scrape everything repeatedly without abandon.

First from known networks, then from residential IPs. First with dumb http clients, now with full blown headless chrome browsers.

Only if that AI does not hallucinate, otherwise it would be useless.

Systems that use shamirs secret sharing, like openbao, require multiple operators to unlock the secret engine.

Gitlab premium can also require multiple approvals before a merge request can be merged.
