You could see as Git for operating system binaries. You can pull new versions and the currently booted system is a checkout.
It provides many benefits, like atomic updates/rollbacks, integrity checking, signed commits, etc.
Some distributions use OSTree, like Fedora Silverblue and CoreOS. Flatpak also uses OSTree as its store.
