I'm not certain what the use case is for a historical record of changes is. Nor am I convinced that the web based diffs that tools like viewvc and github provide are the most suited for the types of queries I can imagine. That being said, should there be interest in queries of the form "when was committer 'X' added to PMC 'Y'", I could see a tool that did a binary search through revisions, parsing the json, and using that to determine how to proceed could make use of a SVN or Git repository. If this is what you are envisioning, git is better aligned for this usage than svn in that checking out a different revision can be done without a server interaction. Whimsy could expose the repository itself readonly for others to clone and perform offline analysis. Whimsy could also host tools that do specific queries. Is this along the lines of what you were envisioning? - Sam Ruby
