CEO of the company that built Dolt here. I just did some preliminary research and it seems that we have a similar mission. We both want to version control data.
The thing Dolt does that splitgraph does not do is support branches, diffs, merges and conflicts on data and schema. Dolt has its own storage engine to do this efficiently whereas Splitgraph relies on Postgres.
Having native Postgres with a versioning layer on top has other advantages so we're excited to see how Splitgraph's approach works in practice. Excited to play with it. We love to see more tools in this underserved space.
