dolt
Dolt is a version-controlled SQL database that supports Git-like operations such as fork, clone, branch, merge, push, and pull.
What is dolt?
Dolt is a SQL database that integrates Git-style version control directly into the data layer. It allows users to fork, clone, branch, merge, push, and pull databases just like Git repositories, enabling collaborative data workflows and full auditability of changes. It combines the power of a modern relational database with the collaboration and versioning features of Git.
Data engineers, data scientists, and developers who need version-controlled, auditable, and collaborative data workflows, especially those working with datasets that require tracking changes, branching for experimentation, or merging contributions from multiple team members.
Developers choose Dolt because it provides native Git-like version control for data within a fully functional SQL database, offering features like cell-level lineage, time travel queries, and conflict detection during merges. Unlike traditional databases or version control systems applied to data dumps, Dolt integrates versioning directly into the database operations, making data as manageable and traceable as code.
