You may want to have a look at qri "query" - https://qri.io (disclosure, I work there).

Free & open-source tools for dataset versioning built on IPFS (the distributed web). Qri datasets contain commit histories, immutable hashes for each version (commit), schema info, metadata, readmes, & transform scripts, all of which ride together with the data (or, body).

Latest versions of our CLI tools support SQL & version diffing. We also have an electron app, Qri Desktop (https://qri.io/desktop)

I'm promoting the latest release of Qri -pronounced ‘query’- (0.6.1), a free and open source dataset version control system / network for finding, collaborating on and publishing open datasets on IPFS. It's a kind of git/github just for open datasets.

We (qri) have built a front-end webapp (free & open source) for publishing, sharing, and versioning datasets on IPFS. When you download qri, you're working on IPFS (distributed web).

Still very geeky, but we're trying to make sure it's very simple to use for data scientists/analysts/researchers alike.
