Was GNU grep implemented by somebody writing the code or running "cp unix/grep.c gnu/grep.c"?

To the best of my knowledge, the people behind this project wrote code.

I don't know if it's a Bash script containing your one liner, though... But they seem to have their own code. (I don't think Trello's code is freely available).

Bear in mind, I'm not for or against. I'm just putting the thing in perspective and to be compared with what happened throughout History.

When I do Ctrl+K, Ctrl+T, Ctrl+W, Ctrl+Tab in Firefox or Chrome, they all have the same side effects.

The people in the project cp -rf'ed the assets from Trello proper including CSS, proprietary fonts, icons, and images.
Indeed.
