I have been following this project with enthusiasm in hopes it enables CICD operations with flexo! A suggestion if I may be so bold:
Since flexo operates as a centralized, server-coordinated, versioned graph system rather than a truly distributed VCS, much of the complexity in the proposed git-style workflows is inherited rather than necessary - these patterns primarily solve distributed coordination problems that flexo doesn't face.
In contrast, jj-style (Jujutsu) workflows, with continuous editing, mutable commits, automatic snapshotting, first-class history rewriting, align well with flexo's graph-native, semantic model backend. An optional jj-inspired workflow mode layered on top of the existing CLI could significantly reduce cognitive overhead for MBSE users who aren't typically git-fluent (I've personally experienced this firsthand training "systems engineers" to use git).
The CLI could mirror jj's approach of namespacing legacy compatibility under flexo git <command> while making the more intuitive jj-sytle workflow the default.
Happy to discuss further on Slack or Google Groups, and I'd also love to get involved in flexo development, particularly this project.
