Export version history to make a git repo. Feature request. Use version history to produce git patch files.

There is a version history feature in the google Docs. It would be great to have opportunity to export it in the most convenient form: just as a bunch of base file and subsequent diff files with the names corresponding those in the google history file. It for a purpose to be easily converted into git repo, or any other version control system. It seems there is another format of diff files - git diff patches, that correspond to git commits and make the task even more easy. So it's possible to export even a branched file history.

This seems like it might be a good idea, but it's way beyond the scope of this add-on. Also, I'm not sure if the version history is programmatically accessible to add-ons.
