I was part of a coding bootcamp, and one day the class was talking about git. Somebody mentioned that “git” is also a word used as an insult, like “That guy is a total git”. When I revealed that was where the name came from, several students audibly gasped, and a couple said something like “Oh, how embarrassing!” I had the weirdest sense of culture shock, and I had no doubt those students would make very good corporate drones.
