Suggestion: Git Repository as Storage

Open deefdragon opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

Similar to #813 this request is to allow for git repositories for tracking and storage of configuration and styles.

Implementing this suggestion should automatically implement 813 with little extra work, but also allow for standard GitHub repositories, and private git repositories.

This requires us mapping the entire database to a file system in a readable way. Currently, styles are stored in JSON format, which is hard to be considered as readable or editable.

This would be super useful. Not sure what you mean by JSON not being readable, it's a pretty standard configuration format (it's used in this repository).

I think ideally you would be able to set a custom system path containing multiple .json files, or .css files in mozilla format, that would be loaded in addition to the main database.
