What you're proposing (if I understand it correctly) would introduce
transactions to Org and with it the non-trivial problem of determining
when a transaction is finished (and started, but that's really another
one).  Git would merely be the mechanism to record the transactions and
probably not a good one at that even with the merge driver.

THat aside, even if it worked I'm sure it would annoy me so much I'd
switch it off entirely.


Regards,
Achim.
