Steve Yegge Deleted the Wrong Thing

This article critiques Steve Yegge's recent post about merging commits at agent scale, where he advocates for batching hundreds of commits onto main and using swarm diagnosis instead of bisection. The author, who sells merge queues, agrees that serial merging is mathematically impossible at high commit rates but argues Yegge deleted the wrong thing: the intent and attribution behind each commit. By merging 150 commits at once, the mapping from failures back to specific agents is lost, making repair expensive. The article discusses the trade-offs between speed and debuggability in CI/CD for AI-driven development.
