GoKawiilProject proposes Git-style version history for the US Code
A technical proposal argues that US federal statutes should be tracked like source code, with line-by-line attribution showing which public law changed a provision, when it took effect, and what the text read on any given date. It uses the shifting small-business debt limit in 11 USC § 1182(1) — altered repeatedly by the CARES Act and subsequent extensions between 2020 and 2025 — to illustrate how current amendment notes and effective-date prose make it hard to reconstruct the law as it stood at a specific moment.
