Look, I get that we’re all big Epic haterd here, but this is kind of a silly complaint to leverage against them. Lore is intended to be used for game development where you have lots of large binary files, such as textures, audio files etc. The VCS itself does not have any large binary files, it’s pure code, so using git is perfectly adequate. And putting a project on Github makes it significantly more accessible to potential contributors.

Again, they intend to compete with Perforce, which is what nearly every AAA game studio in the world is currently using. Not git.
