So they _really_ mean git.

  Right. When the biggest advances in blockchain are really in consensus.

    Sure. Which is, as the parent comment pointed out, rarely one of the things people trumpeting "blockchain" need in the problem domain they're proposing to deploy it. I don't need global PoW or PoS consensus for my health records. I need something my health providers and I can agree is authoritative and as accurate as the data entry makes possible. The parent comment's "immutable, distributed, cryptographically-verified database". Something like a shared git repo. Not like a crypto currency.
