For now I guess you could use a different dvcs like mercurial

  Or you could serialize the original git tree into another format and commit that. Then have a build step that deserializes it back into a git tree. And if you make a change to your legit program then you serialize the new tree and make a new commit with that. I think git format-patch would be "appropriate" for this. git format-patch will generate a patch-file per commit. It might not be very pleasant and I wouldn't suggest doing it this way for most cases, but I think in the context of "legit" it would be the most obvious way and it would be in line with the spirit of "legit" itself. And in fact if Mercurial Queues are what you were referring to then I seem to recall that it works somewhat in the same way that I described above, doesn't it? At least in terms of being about working with diffs of diffs I mean.
