Open Source Linux Git Software

Dolt is a SQL database that you can fork, clone, branch, merge, push and pull just like a git repository. Connect to Dolt just like any MySQL database to run queries or update the data using SQL commands. Use the command line interface to import CSV files, commit your changes, push them to a remote, or merge your teammate's changes. All the commands you know for Git work exactly the same for Dolt. Git versions files, Dolt versions tables. It's like Git and MySQL had a baby. We also built DoltHub, a place to share Dolt databases. We host public data for free. If you want to host your own version of DoltHub, we have DoltLab. If you want us to run a Dolt server for you, we have Hosted Dolt. MySQL comes with a MySQL server called mysqld and a MySQL client called mysql. You're only interested in the client. After following the instructions from MySQL's documentation, make sure you have a copy of the mysql client on your path.

VersionPress is a free and open-source plugin that brings the full power of Git to WordPress. Its key strength is that it version-controls not just files but also the database. VersionPress automatically creates Git commits for both file and database changes, in natural language. Plugins break, people make mistakes; sometimes, you just want that good old Undo button. Git took the pain out of file merging; VersionPress does the same for WP database. You can push to GitHub, your colleagues pull and make the site fully functional in seconds. MySQL is a cache. VersionPress can store hundreds of full site snapshots to just a few megabytes. We care about UX deeply. VersionPress should not be a low-level tool for geeks. It works fine on simpler sites and you're encouraged to try it in your development workflows but it is not production-ready yet.
