Dolt is a SQL database that you can fork, clone, branch, merge, push and pull just like a git repository. Connect to Dolt just like any MySQL database to run queries or update the data using SQL commands. Use the command line interface to import CSV files, commit your changes, push them to a remote, or merge your teammate's changes.

All the commands you know for Git work exactly the same for Dolt. Git versions files, Dolt versions tables. It's like Git and MySQL had a baby!

Lots of things! Dolt is a generally useful tool with countless applications. But if you want some ideas, here's how people are using it so far.

The install script needs sudo in order to put dolt in /usr/local/bin. If you don't have root privileges or aren't comfortable running a script with them, you can download the dolt binary for your platform from the latest release, unzip it, and put the binary somewhere on your $PATH.
