    Hi Daniil,

    I saw your message on the web about `git-phoenix`.

    > [ANN] git-phoenix - repository recovery tool

    I am curious how this accidental rm rf * typo happened on your system ?

    Could you tell us more about it ?
   
    I guess the user/you was trying to remove a folder or so ?

    I am wondering if I should disable this rm command, but the AI seems to like it a lot !

    Best regards,
    Skybuck Flying.

    P.S.: This is an attempt to send a e-mail directly from windows 11 outlook to the mailing list/reply functionality, manually, wish this mail luck ! :D
    ```

I am an active nix user and develop all my projects under nix-shell.
The tool does amazing job for isolating builds, but /nix/store folder 
tend to grow and GC launch is required from time to time to reclaim disk 
space, but it causes lot of downloading later and/or rebuilding of 
dependencies.

Once I decided to remove unused projects instead to avoid the hustle 
above and was interleaving 'du -hs *' and 'rm -rf 
<some-dir-name-form-du-output>' using bash command history to type less. 
At some point after repetition I mechanically rewrote du command into rm 
but retained asterisk :(
