    Pando is a Git backend which can scale to very large monorepos. We took the hard road of continuing to use Git, which means we could enable Pando with no change to devex. Considering providing this to others, let me know ([email protected]) if you'd be interested. https://t.co/lcwDo734hI

    We built Pando, a new Git backend for our monorepo, to handle more pushes and fetches without changing how our engineers and agents use Git. Pando cut push latency by ~80% and now serves nearly a petabyte of Git data a day. We can grow Git capacity alongside agent usage. https://t.co/4c0YXOfKqK
