Haha, really, run a file system adaptor in image. And then run git, or
any other file based version control tool on it.
The complication is , that most of such tools using subdirectories to
maintain own specific info (like CVS in CVS, and .svn with SVN).
So, you will need to make it able to store these files somewhere in
image , not only methods which are subject of version control.
