Regarding *Codeville* version control system: if I remember it correctly, it used novel merge algorithm, which was often better than the diff3 merge algorithm that RCS, CVS, Subversion, Git and other version control systems use.
However, if there was a problem with merge (a conflict), it was, from what I heard, much harder to resolve - because the algorithm was more complex. And with the introduction of the recursive merge the diff3 algorithm was deemed good enough in practice, easy to understand, and lacking sharp corner cases.

It looks like Riot.im accounts got forcible password change - at least I cannot login with my saved riot.im password to element.io
There is nothing of note there in my case, but resetting/changing password supposedly means loosing conversation history. Not good!

The first example in the article is what `git shortlog -n` does; no need for the pipeline.

Two things that I would like to see:
* horizontal (landscape) mode, especially the tablet / desktop (web) version, maybe with something like timelines mentioned here
* some way of marking when beginning and end of box representing even actually falls on begin and end time (perhaps bolder lines, perhaps some shading, perhaps adding "handles" i.e. ------- to -----, etc.)
I also wonder how do you represent whole-day events.
Great work!
