If they're trying to wrap the CLI in natural language, that sounds like a terrible idea, like trying to wrap SQL or regex in natural language: it's been tried before, but when it comes down to it you need to understand the system you're interacting with it in order to make coherent requests from it. Any natural language system for version control probably just starts off simple and then slowly becomes more complex as users have more complex requirements for their versioning, and suddenly you're reinventing the whole syntax but with a more ambiguous interface. There's a reason that Git is more than just "git commit".

is a bit of a misrepresentation of what your link talks about. Anthropic developed a highly opinionated source control system specifically tailored to their monorepo system and their engineering workflows. Pretty much every bigcorp has done the same.
If one of my engineers came to me tomorrow and said that we should roll our own source control system to speed up development I’d laugh and say good joke bud.
