Beagle, a source code management system that stores AST trees

Beagle SCM

Beagle is a source code management system that stores AST trees, not binary blobs. The general idea is a database for the code as a hub of all code-related activities and storage for all the related data (tickets, CI results, whatsnot). The backing store is virtually any key-value database (rocksdb as of now). The data format AST BASON is CRDT-ish.

Beagle is early stage and experimental. It host itself, the rest is not guaranteed. Use at your own risk.

Examples of use

    # Initial POST of a project. We specify repo, project path.
    # Absence of http: or ssh: makes it local to the store in $HOME/.be
    $ be post //replicated.live/@gritzko/librdx
    ...
    OK   h    ast/tree-sitter/point.h
    OK   h    ast/tree-sitter/parser.h
    OK   c    ast/tree-sitter/query.c
    OK   text ast/verilog/LICENSE
    ...million more lines...
