The context of this discussion is _large_ projects. My sense is
that git's efficiency relative to other SCM technologies means
that the larger the project the higher the likelihood of use git.
Also, when talking speed ripgrep has been a revelation:
https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep
Admitted that ripgrep is written in rust but a scanner exploiting
similar ideas could change what we imagine to be a big project.
