Repo has a single open pull request where someone (by their own admission) just fed the code into ChatGPT then pasted the results into a pull request without actually testing it.

Has anyone seen this happening anywhere else?

Honestly thought it's troll cuz April fools or something, but the guy actually has like 10% usefull suggestions in the PR. Will probably close that one tho.

Woah! I didn't realise it was 1st April when I raised that PR. Sorry if it isn't of much use (as can be expected of straight GPT responses). I didn't mean to come out as a troll.

I agree; should've at least tested the change before raising a PR, but I would've just dropped the idea, so felt it best to share my findings at least.

All good there were some good points in the PR which I will likely adapt into the script.

But when you wrote that you ported my 3 line bash script to rust I thought you were kidding.
