> Thanks! We're definitely not trying to bash Git, it's done a lot of good for software development and for sure is going to continue evolving.

It is not about bashing git; it is about anchoring your argument of why Diversion is a better alternative around git. You're basically taking your game/arguments to their playing field, and thus will have an uphill battle for mindshre.

Instead, consider reframing the playing field and mention git less (if at all). Something like "the future of version control is blah". Surprise us, talk to us about your vision for source control, or better yet, code and multi-discipline collaboration (e.g. between eng and design), etc.

I personally would not bother reading any "the future of X" if it did not address problems of existing tools. I know you're trying to give advice from a marketing pov, and it is good, but it's also inherently bulshitty – because its purpose is to net more sales rather than actually make a good argument
