Neon says an agent built a working git host with clone, push and JWT auth

Neon says that when GitHub went down, they asked an agent to build a git hosting service, and the result was surprisingly complete.
According to the quoted post, the service can clone repos, push changes, authenticate with JWTs, and move large files to object storage. The whole setup reportedly fits into a single config file, which is used to argue that hosting git may be less hard than people assume.
