Git notes is redundant since you need a higher-level project management tool to track features anyway. Roadmaps, feature hierarchy and non-technical details. Think of any big tracker or Jira.

I think that's fine. Unix philosophy is to focus on one thing and do that well.

A project management tool that uses Notes would make IDE integration easier though.

I vaguely recall dismissing Notes as a solution to my problems. I may be recollecting some of this wrong, but IIRC the problem with Notes is that they aren’t batteries included. It’s easier to cajole devs into using new tools if the setup is simple and it doesn’t complicate their workflow. Notes fails this litmus test. Set it on by default and make it come down with pull and up with push instead of a separate activity.

There are many uses for Git notes even though you might use a project management tool. Particularly all those things which are relevant for developers only, or that the developers can use as the data source for "higher-level" goals.
