I wish someone would do this for legal code, starting with federal law with hashes for all representatives

(way I envision it is that their committees being their own branches, along with the chambers of congress

even though its not part of the git protocol, the GUI element of the Pull Request feature could have continuous integration that showed when a threshold of votes were passed to get something into to the next branch like out of committee and onto the floor

then after whichever path was taken to get something codified into law, it is merged into the master branch where the agencies have their own process to update the code of federal regulations)

I'm wondering if Fossil would be more suited to this than Git.
