@mrkeen@mastodon.social @doctormo@floss.social As someone around at the time the Wikipedia page describes it reasonably fairly: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitKeeper?wprov=sfla1 Tridge broke the commercial lock in, Larry McVoy responded by pulling free access and Linus coded up something quickly to keep development possible. None of the AI developments are in any way similar, as I see them, unless maintainers resign rather than accept work from AI tools they would otherwise accept.
