Yes, i am testing it now.

So far seems good, initially i was getting some very slow animation times but adding the `--low-quality` flag seems to work well.

I am planning to do an internal session in my company on Git, and will be using this tool to help them visualise some of the concepts :)

Sweet! Yeah the slow animation is a Manim performance limitation, I think (hope) their community is working on improving that.

Yes --low-quality works for testing but the fastest way would be to first test without the --animate flag at all, so you just get a final image of the command's effect.

Then once you get that you can add the --animate flag to generate your final video to share.

And awesome to hear it will be used for your company session! I love teaching people about Git. Feel free to share the tool with them so they can try it out as well!
