Fun fact

Yes, apparently (at least for git and how GitHub verifies contributor status), Linus Torvalds is listed as a contributor.
No, he didn’t really work on this project, it was just a little git/GitHub easter egg!
If you’re curious, this is a known developer meme that sometimes shows up in open source projects like this.
