OpenAI built itself a new Git backend, too
OpenAI announced the development of Pando, a new Git backend designed to handle the dramatic increase in commit volume driven by agentic coding tools. The company reports that commits to its monorepo increased over 2,400% from Q1 2024 to the end of the year. Pando reduced push latency by nearly 5x and currently manages close to a petabyte of Git data per day. OpenAI chose to remain within the Git ecosystem for compatibility rather than building a completely new architecture, addressing reliability issues where its previous backend dropped below 90% uptime.
