I don't have anything public, unfortunately. It wasn't super complicated. It just generated a long string of all the files with Ed commands around it to change the current file name (f) and invoke Git (!git).
I don't remember why I decided to do it this way. I probably couldn't easily connect to the database any other way. Getting the right tools installed might've involved some bureaucracy. Nowadays, I probably would've just dealt with that, but I didn't know at the time how important that janky solution would be to my work.
Power BI is not something I miss working with but Power Query is really nice. The fact that the UI generates code that you can tweak afterwards is a great learning tool. I still use it in Excel sometimes.
