> Without pants, our repo would be a mess.

Filed under sentences I never thought I'd hear.

Hahaha, because pants is a bad tool? Or because it sounds funny? I’m sympathetic to both :)

In defense of pants, I meant that our repo would be a mess without a versioned dependency graph + reproducible builds. Of course other tools give you that too, and definitely do it better than pants does.

I guess I should have said “without some build tool”, our repo would be a mess.
