    Dolt – Git for Data

    I've been very curious to explore this type of use case with askgit (https://github.com/augmentable-dev/askgit) which was designed for running simple "slice and dice" queries and aggregations on git history (and change stats) for basic analytical purposes. I've been curious about how this could be applied to a small text+git based "db". Say, for a regular json or CSV dumps.

    This also reminds me of Dolt: https://github.com/dolthub/dolt which I believe has been on HN a couple times

  • crux

  • InfluxDB

    Access the most powerful time series database as a service. Ingest, store, & analyze all types of time series data in a fully-managed, purpose-built database. Keep data forever with low-cost storage and superior data compression.

  • cl-git

    A Common Lisp implementation of parsers for the git object file formats (by fiddlerwoaroof)

    Tangentially I started a re-implementation of git in Common Lisp[1], and have completed parsers for most of the file formats except delta encoded objects.

    Does anyone happen to know of an implementation or tests for delta encoding I could consult that is available under an MIT-like license? (BSD, Apache v2, etc.)

  • gitmq

    GitMQ: Git message queue

  • time

    A simplified approach to working with dates, times, and time zones. (by elm)

    A lot of this was really cleared up for me by Evan Czaplicki's documentation for the Elm time library: https://github.com/elm/time

  • relaxo-query-server

    The Relaxo Query Server provides support for executing CouchDB functions using Ruby.

    Yes, it was. It was originally a front end and back end (query server) for CouchDB. But CouchDB 2 really went in a different direction to what I expected with query servers so I gave up and decided to pivot in a different direction with the code base.

    https://github.com/ioquatix/relaxo-query-server FYI.
