gollark: I would probably just go for automatically generated machine-readable changelogs of some form.
gollark: *Currently* I can't do half of those because there's no actual versioning mechanism, and no way to compile stuff because it is all run straight off pastebin.
gollark: Having version control would probably make some potatOS things I've wanted possible, such as verified boot where potatOS ensures that the currently installed stuff matches a checksum, compressed updates, and updates which work if I change a non-core file (the updater logic is very weird).
gollark: And I think cloud catcher.
gollark: Monaco is the one VSCode uses.
