    Technically correct title would be: s/Kernel into/Kernel Git History into/

    If I recall correctly, the Fossil SCM uses SQLite under the covers for a lot of its stuff.

    Obviously that's not surprising considering its creator, but hearing that was kind of the first time I had ever considered that you could translate something like Git semantics to a relational database.

    I haven't played with Pgit...though I kind of think that I should now.

    Read the title and immediately thought "what a weird way to solve the performance loss with kernel 7..." The mind tricking itself :)
