Coming up in Sept!


Domino has a nice solution for version control and reproducibility in the context of analytical / data science work: they keep a snapshot of your code, data, and results every time you run your code. So it’s like version control plus continuous integration. Supports large data files, R, Python, etc. http://www.dominodatalab.com/


Yeah, but their system is super simplistic and doesn't support half of the diverse and robust operations that Git and Github do. Can I see version history? Are changes compressed into diffs for text files? etc, etc.


Git stores whole objects, not diffs, in case you were confused.


Git stores diffs between revisions too: see https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-pack-ob...

Packs happen automatically sometimes per https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-gc.html
