It seems really odd to me that git uses 'cached' terminology for staging. For example, `git add somefile.rs; git diff --cached`. Caching implies state that you don't mind losing. There's very little state I want to lose in version control!

I see that *up has become an increasingly common name for toolchain installers: rustup, ghcup, even juliaup. I think Rust was the first to use this terminology? I'm curious how similar the different *up tools are.

I'm a huge fan of Swift's 'Error Handling Rationale' design document: https://github.com/swiftlang/swift/blob/9315673c003875158852579bd1f33480cdec5461/docs/ErrorHandlingRationale.md#fundamentals It carefully defines terminology and compares with other languages, so you can understand Swift's position and preference in the design space.
