VERSION-CONTROL

At its Compile conference, Cursor announced Origin: a Git-compatible code hosting platform designed around AI agents as first-class users. Built on its Graphite acquisition, it promises agent-driven merge conflict resolution, stacked PRs, and MCP-extensible automation.

Epic Games open-sourced Lore, a centralized version control system designed for binary-heavy game projects. It uses Merkle trees, on-demand file hydration, and native chunked storage to handle terabyte-scale repos that Git struggles with.
