Yep! We spent 20 years dealing with these problems and in those 20 years nobody really solved these pain points. So we talked to some SCM vendors, bounced ideas around, built a spec, got feedback from them, repeated off-and-on for a couple years until we got the current draft, and implemented it for our needs.
It's been a few years now, and so far so good for the purposes we built it for. And it's there for any other tool or SCM authors to use if it also happens to be useful to them.
