alt Hacker Newsthanks! FUSE is actually a really cool idea, hadn't thought about that. would basically let you mount a repo as a filesystem backed by postgres. server side branches and change sets are interesting too, postgres already handles concurrent access well so that could work nicely. definitely adding these to the ideas list!
I've already spun up claude to make a POC for this.
I like gerrit, but the server is such a pain to handle (java plus FS). PG would be the only server side component required, though you could have an optional review server that would act like a PG client as well.
The FUSE would be extremely nice for CI/CD for instant cloning with a local resource cache, which is much harder to do with a FS based git.
