Dev Life S5E19 | Re Engineering Git with PJ Hagerty

Git standard is often the bottleneck for AI-generated code. In this episode, we’re joined by PJ Hagerty, Head of DevRel at GitButler, to discuss how the co-founder of GitHub is reinventing change management. We dive into the "parallel branches" approach that outpaces git worktree, how to prevent the "oops, I committed to main" mistake, and why GitButler acts as the essential "traffic controller" for Agentic Coding (Cursor, Claude Code). We cover: - Beyond the GUI: Why GitButler is a new mental model, not just a wrapper. - AI & Knowledge Decay: Will AI-generated commits erode our fundamental engineering craft? -The Human Element: Why DevRel isn't "dying" and how PJ is tackling mental health in tech with OSMI.
