I would like to have a PDF viewer that lets me click a button (or press a key) to move backwards in the PDF file's git history. In effect, git checkout <commit> file.pdf
but automatically moving back in the commit history on each keypress.
Combined with something like the overview mode of pdfpc, that could make for a very efficient way to glance through the history of a PDF file, such as a thesis or a beamer presentation.
So far I have not found any PDF viewer software with something akin to that.
Maybe I should just open the PDF in VSCodium and use the built-in git support? Would that provide something similar?
Gitea is great. So is Codeberg. The ability to share repos, issues, and users across Gitea instances, would be awesome.
Git itself is already federated and decentralised, but there is still a need for federation of the remote repo and its facilities.
The idea of some sort of federation between Gitea instances has been around since 2016.
