The specific use case is this: I have a Git repository which archives most of my home directory. A cron job commits this repository every minute. This creates a finely-detailed history of most everything I store in my home directory. I have a script that cron runs every night that rebuilds the commit history, omitting certain commits so that as you go back in time, the commits are spaced farther and farther apart. Because Git is good at compressing commits that have much duplicated content, this acts like a poor man's version of Apple's "Time Machine". The advantage is that since the underlying data structure is a Git repository, all Git tools can be used on it. What's needed for my convenience is a browser that lets me look through this mass of history to find whatever I need to recover.
