Looks cool, but seems kind of weird that it only works through an sdk. Should there be a cli or something?
Edit: Oh I see. Seems like their use case is embedding version control into another application.

Correct. Lix has been developed with the embedded use-case in mind.
Someone can write a CLI for it. Though, the primary use case is not code version control but embedding into applications
Thanks for the clarification. We have a bunch of SSIS/SSRS packages in version control that are essentially just big balls of XML. Git has a really hard time dealing with them. I was thinking Lix may possibly be a good option.
The SSIS use case is a good one for lix.
Write an SSIS plugin (essentially just parse the XML) and lix can track the xml props in the SSIS package. Opposed to line by line stuff that git does.
