I'm surprised at all the criticism over the blame mechanism. It's clear the goal here is to avoid the diffusion of responsibility that occurs when dozens of people are getting the same exception emails. And in any case, what kind of developer worth his salt is offended by blamed for a bug? I mean sure if someone is being an asshole about it, or if they jumped to the conclusion that it was you when you had nothing to do with it, but if git blame algorithm flags you then what is there to be offended about? Surely we all accept that good software can not be created by tiptoeing around the facts and occurrences of the software development process?

This looks like fantastic software, it's the most exciting thing I've come across in several weeks or maybe even months, and I'm looking forward to trying it out.




agreed. Squash is finely tuned with a set of features to fill in gaps found in another very popular commercial tool in the same vein.

tl;dr: don't knock it till you try it!
