SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

GFS CLI provides Git-like version control for databases, enabling safe collaboration and reproducible states by capturing commits, branches, and a time-travel history for changes to database schemas and data.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Commit and track database states with meaningful messages to support rollback and auditing.
  • Create and switch branches to experiment with schema changes without affecting the main branch.
  • Automatically capture and store schema metadata during commits and support time travel to view historic states.
  • Use with PostgreSQL and MySQL containers to manage containerized databases in development and CI environments.

Quick Start

Install the GFS CLI, initialize a repository with gfs init, and commit your first database state to start tracking changes.
