Yes. That's what I mean by using Git as it is meant to be used. Git versions the file system. It is meant to be transparent to dev tools, that are completely unaware of it. True, another way to say this is "less integrated".

I consider the link I sent as a "proper diff". I really can't see how it is not obvious that the proper way to version packages is simply using a file per package!

BTW, in Cuis, the sorting order of the stuff in .pck.st files is well defined, so the problem you say can not happen.
