Lucas@davidgerard Okay so if I understood correctly, that means NetBSD and OpenBSD remain slop-free while FreeBSD and Linux won't. Didn't have "Run BSD" on my bucket list, but here we go I guess 🙃
波鉄 (Hatetsu)@lu_leipzig @davidgerard Linux, I think I've heard enough about, but FreeBSD? Is the guy who submitted the slop a contributor or something? Has something been moving there? Or is this simply an inference from current discourse over there?
@HaTetsu @davidgerard That was based on FreeBSD's GitHub repo showing the infamous "Claude was here" banner:
Ratsnake Games 🔞@lu_leipzig @HaTetsu @davidgerard that banner appears even if claude contributed to one PR that was accidentally accepted and then promptly reverted, as happened with Godot for example. Manual audit is still necessary, unfortunately.
@lu_leipzig @HaTetsu @davidgerard In this case, claude does not (yet?) have contributions on the main branch.
@ratsnakegames @HaTetsu @davidgerard Found this commit on main from a couple of weeks back: https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-src/commit/6495dafd58b94a44fc9bc966ef47d6bc6916f5b9
It's only a trivial change and it seems to originally come from this PR at openzfs: https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/pull/18255
So yes, technically there's a Claude commit in FreeBSD's main branch, but this particular one is probably too trivial to directly affect FreeBSD's quality or legal situation. It would have been great if they still rejected it as a matter of principle though.
The_Decryptor@lu_leipzig @ratsnakegames @HaTetsu @davidgerard And here's a similar situation with OpenBSD
https://github.com/openbsd/src/commit/9c2b8e445a0bdfafdd6148b1760f00aa5429627b
It's more involved, but also from a 3rd party project.
