- Geometric Chronology
- Where she finds a force-pushed branch or a generated-file commit, she marks that region of her timeline unreliable — precisely the substrate-disturbance move, the version-control analogue of a fault zone or a melt zone that locally scrambles the geometry.
This sourceDocuments force-pushed and rewritten history (and generated-file commits) as scrambling repository geometry — the version-control analogue of a stratigraphic disturbance zone that returns confidently wrong order if read naively.
