I had no idea this issue had been identified. While I find this tool very useful, the project is seeming rather questionable to me now.

      It sounds like they weren’t using any form of version control, so that’s definitely on them at this point

        What makes you say that? To me, it sounds like that’s what they do have cause they tracked the change back to him. The commit message obviously said nothing about the file.

          Ah I could see that. I took it as them not knowing where the file came from at all, so they’re just asking all the devs who would have had access at that point, which is why it was “hey do you know anything about this file?” and not “is there a specific reason you committed this file to the build?”
