I love this. This made me think that logging all legislation in a public VCS might be a very good way to leverage superintelligence while maintaining democracy. I want this for Germany.

Great idea! I hope you did something like:

  $ git commit --amend --author="Author Name <author@spanish.gov>" --no-edit
.. with the details for the author of each commit.

Then, it would be simply amazing to run gource, sit back, and watch where all the noise is coming from.

Gource:

https://github.com/acaudwell/gource

What gource looks like:

https://gource.io/

I’ve long wanted to see gource applied in other sociologically-relevant contexts and this’d be a real good one ..

I tried using Gource and... well, the commits were not sorted by date, so the time goes all over the place.

I've been saying for years that any and all legal documents (and all lawyers) should be required to be on/use git

I've seen something like this before, here's the Argentina constitution as a git repo, with reforms as commits. Much shorter in scope, but this was pre LLM coding

P.S: Sadly my PR amendment was repealled
