One thing I notice is that the diff still requires pretty deep analysis. You need to be able to compare xml or JSON over time.

I keep thinking the real power of git-based data-over-time storage is flatter data structures. Rather than one or a dozen or so files, scaped & stored, we could synthesize some kind of directory structure & simple value files - alike a plan9/9p system - that express the data, but where changes are more structurally apparent.

Thoughts?
