This kind of magic is the reason that I'm very itchy to be able to line up real work on Datomic or XTDB someday.

Surprisingly, neither Datomic nor XTDB support branching. See: https://blog.danieljanus.pl/datomic-forking-the-past/

I actually built my own immutable database which does support branching (see profile), so it seems like a huge miss that these ones don't. It's pretty much the main reason I would want an immutable database.
