.. In their git commits, deterministically

In other tools I have been able to prompt this away but cursor is doing it deterministically now, I am fairly certain. This, to me, is not great.

There's a setting to turn this off if you prefer (Cursor Settings > Agent > Attribution).

ah yes thank you very much that did work

still not great in my opinion sadly i think this will likely get worse and perhaps never get better

commit messages as marketing materials and 'kpi's is an anti-pattern i would have preferred to avoid
