Daily code merges jumped from about 2,500 to over 30,000 in a matter of months, and Git couldn't keep up Anthropic has replaced Git with a homegrown source control system called Scion. The reason is simple: its engineers, and increasingly its AI models, are now merging more than 30,000 code changes every day. In May 2026, Anthropic averaged roughly 2,500 merged code changes per day. By September 2026, that figure had climbed past 30,000 merges per day. The company attributes the surge to the growing capabilities of its Claude models.
