[Sussex] Reinventing the wheel

[Dominic Humphries]

We do something vaguely similar where I work. We use Git - every time a
file is uploaded via the website, it gets added/updated to the git repo.
Each git commit has a unique SHA and a trackable history, we can even
use it to show previous versions of files if they want to revert to
them.
