primarily, 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
