- Git is excellent for its original purpose of human-driven development, but the author sought to create a modern version control system.
- The author built a version control system called Jam over four years, sold it, but the acquiring company shut down, inspiring further innovation.
- Oak is a new version control system designed for AI agents, featuring virtual mounts for speed and efficiency, and is built on an open-source core.
- Oak is in early development, lacking some features and a Windows build, but is already self-hostable and can export to Git.
- The author invites early adopters with a unique offer for the first 100 paid subscribers and encourages feedback via Discord.
