yeah this is an interesting approach, both for the context-partitioning but also for reproducibility and dependency pinning. i was toying with this before needing to run with just docker on a project. would be nice to find a tool that streamlines some of this
Re: dependency pinning, I put together a little write-up about that: https://gist.github.com/MatrixManAtYrService/6eaf50373448c0b...
You can use it as an alternative to `git bisect` where only you're only bisecting the history of a single subflake. I imagine writing a new test that indicates the presence of an old bug, and then going back in time to see when the bug was reintroduced. With git bisect, going back in time means your new test goes away too.
