Thanks for the feedback.

AI agents are the pull right now to why version control is needed outside of software engineering.

The mistake in the blog post is triggering comparisons to git, which leads to “why is this better/different than git?”.

If you have a custom binary file, you can write a plugin for it! :)

Lix runs on top of a SQL database because we initially built lix on top of git but needed:

- database semantics (transactions, acid, etc.)

- SQL to express history queries (diffing arbitrary file formats cant be solved with a simple diff() API)
