This is a bad choice, I wouldn't understand that it needs to be read backwards. Why not use process's executable name instead?

Did you even open the link?

Human readability was not a goal, in fact quite the opposite.

    Its a horrible link. It points to a specific commit...Okay, so it must have something to do with the commit? Nope, the commit is putting a limit on the number of symlinks to resolve for whatever reason. Then you also notice that the link is simply a link to the file, not a specific line (something like https://github.com/mackyle/sqlite/blob/18cf47156abe94255ae14...), so you are expected to read the whole C file to figure out why.

      or you just ^F and search for the string you're looking for and enjoy a good laugh :)

    I meant use the name of the program that embeds SQLite, for example, McAfee, Google Chrome etc. This way the user could easily understand which program has created the files.
