This will be very useful. Great work!
From a big picture point of view, it would be helpful to see where this feature fits into the broader roadmap of version control features.
Also, we will need to document this and other version control features at some point.

The reason why I switched to this was that I thought of two possible ways to implement it, and one of them (that may be slightly better) would have some impact on commit conflict resolution. So I wanted to get it in first.
