I guess you could do this; it'd be interesting to do something more in
keeping with the Unix model than git is.

Create repo:
dd -if etc. etc.

checkout
unvac

commit
vac etc.


compare two trees:
vacfs score1 /tree1
vacfs score2 /tree2
diff-somehow /tree1 /tree2

It seems to me that all the things that are done with git today, with
all its special purpose commands, might be done with a Unix tool
approach. Plus, some of the git commands are pretty interesting and
might be useful if they could be applied to other contexts.
