Antonio Cuni reflects on the 20th anniversary of his first open source commit, which was the initial CLI backend for the PyPy project, made on March 22, 2006 as part of his master's thesis. He traces the commit through PyPy's version control history (SVN → Mercurial → Git), shares the original mailing list interaction that started it all, and reflects on how that single decision shaped his entire career and personal life over two decades.
