I built a Git client that auto-backs up your code while using AI tools

Like many developers, I found myself losing good code while experimenting with different LLM suggestions. Copy-paste a new approach from an LLM, and your previous solution is gone. I built Xferro to solve this. It's a Git client that automatically creates backup branches and commits your changes as you work. Every time you make a change, it's committed to the backup branch and pushed to remote - creating a complete history of your development process, including all those AI experiments. I wrote a blog post about how the "LLM Experimentation Trap" impacts developers and how Xferro addresses this: [ https://www.xferro.ai/post/the-ai-suggestion-vortex ] We're currently collecting waitlist signups for our beta launch. I'd appreciate any feedback on the approach or other scenarios where you find yourself losing work. Join the waitlist [ https://xferro.ai ]
