Git Workbench for Science

The VersionedScientific Record.

Hypotheses, data, methods, code, and drafts are versioned research objects. Branch a line of inquiry, commit every change, merge through named review. Every claim carries its provenance, and Loom coexists with Benchling, OSF, GitHub, Quarto, and JupyterHub.

What Loom Gives You

Version Control Built for Research Objects.

Every branch, commit, and review lives against content-addressed storage, so the scientific record stays intact as the work moves.

Branches

Feature, review, integration, and archive branches per project. Default branches are protected, so merges go through a pull request.

Commits

Hash-chained tree manifests over content-addressed blobs. Every commit is a snapshot of every research object.

Pull requests

Named-review merges with line-anchored comments. Reviewer and merger must differ from the author.

Research objects

Notebooks, drafts, datasets, code, figures, protocols, methods, notes, and claim records, all path-addressed and versioned.

Diffs across time

Compare any two commits, inspect the added, modified, and removed list, and trace every byte back to its author.

Anchored to ledger

Every branch, commit, pull-request review, and merge event is appended to the tamper-evident agent-action ledger.
