      Yep, I cloned the git repo and wrote a script to step through commits a week at a time and count the total em dashes in the repo at each point in time

      git grep -I '—' master | wc -l

      just did a quick check, my graph looks similar.

        How does it look for double hyphens? I would expect those to be more common in code comments (before the LLMageddon at least) as an em dash just looks like a hyphen in the typically displayed monospace type.
