Difftastic is written in Rust, so I was surprised to get a user report of a segfault.
After some investigation, it turns out that it's a segfault in git itself, which has existed since 2014! https://lore.kernel.org/git/CAFXAjY7XcL1APhLRXU8TO96z=f7957f2ieK56dHVsXUay55vpg@mail.gmail.com/T/#u
(Upstream has already kindly written a patch.)

I've had good results by prompting an LLM "review your changes" in the same session when I don't like the initial output.
I'm surprised this is effective: I would think it's redundant when you're running with a high effort setting.
I'm impressed and slightly surprised that I can browse the web even when my local library's wifi blocks detectportal.firefox.com ("Download sites are banned").
It seems that Firefox only requires the website to be redirected when there's a captive portal.
I'm surprised there aren't more tools out there for starting a new project with some default config files.
There's `cargo new` but it's Rust specific and very minimal. create-react-app is React specific.
The only option I know of is cookiecutter. Surely it's a common problem?
