That is very very interesting. I work on a similar project https://replicated.wiki/blog/partII.html https://replicated.wiki/blog/partII.html
I use CRDT merge though, cause 3-way metadata-less merges only provide very incremental improvements over e.g. git+mergiraf.
How do you see got's main improvement over git?
- odvcencio 8mo agoprimarily, got is structural VCS intended for concurrent edits of the same file. it does this via gotreesitter and gts-suite abstractions that enable it to: - have entity-aware diffs - not line by line but function by function - structural blame - attribution resolution for the lifetime of the entity - semver from structure - it can recommend bumps because it knows what is breaking change vs minor vs patch - entity history - because entities are tracked independently, file renames or moves dont affect the entity's history when gotreesitter cant parse a language, the 3way text merge happens as a fallback. what the structural merge enables is no conflicts unless same entity has conflicting changes
- gritzko 8mo agoI think I understand the situation.
