When a git server applies a Git Patch, the commit hash within the server’s git tree is changed so that it does not match the commit hash within the user’s git tree.

Patches cannot ensure that the git tree is replicated perfectly across every git server.

NIP-34 includes the commit hash in a JSON, which is rather trivial compared to reassembling the git tree in a way that is perfectly consistent across every server it is hosted on.

On GitNestr, the user’s git tree is completely identical to the git tree hosted on each git server — down to every last commit hash. https://v.nostr.build/ml9QQ.mp4
