FWIW, I as a user would sure like a git-based tree. Doing git whatchanged |
| 20 |
searches on individual files and being able to track my last checkout and |
| 21 |
roll back to it, or to a point between it and current HEAD, are extremely |
| 22 |
useful. I haven't thought of it much until now, but I think maintaining |
| 23 |
overlays as simple branches would be great, as well. |
