I completely agree. I'd love for somebody to maintain a repository that follows in parallel the real life of a bill. Introducing it to Parliament is like creating a branch, then debating and process can further amend the branch/bill, then passing the bill and submitting it for royal assent is like submitting a pull request.

I'm sick of 3-page bills whose entire purpose is to remove a word or two from existing legislation. A diff is a much more powerful tool of examining the impact of a bill.

Edit: "Aaron's Law" is a good example:

> —Section 1030(e)(6) of title 18, United States Code, is amended by striking "alter;" and inserting the following: "alter, but does not include access in violation of an agreement..."

Tell me a diff doesn't say that better.
