Cut to the chase: This is a marketing post (ad?) for Mesa. https://www.mesa.dev/

A code-first proprietary git-like clone.

They seem to make the mistake many do which is to conflate git and GitHub (though TFA doesn't), because why would you adopt a proprietary hosted VCS (and a startup to boot which could disappear anyway)?

At least with GitHub you can pack up your repos and move elsewhere.

GitHub is certainly in trouble for many reasons. Git...maybe? But is the answer really a proprietary vc-funded ($5M seed) startup?
