Ah, we've got back to the "we should event source everything, and allow ourselves to change history and re-snapshot current state", idea gaining followers again.

Well, yeah. But it's hard. Also, git is not the solution to this, it's just the screwdriver you have in your hand right now.

Funnily enough, git doesn't actually allow you to 'change' any history.

It allows you to make new history, and the old history might get garbage collected eventually.

Event sourcing normally doesn't either. The only way is forward.

		Until you get an event (or 104561 events) that corrupts the whole system and makes it really tricky to get back a working version.
