I haven't tested this and it's unmaintained, but I remember saying "how cool is that" when I first saw it: http://scytale.name/blog/2009/11/announcing-levitation
Once you're in git, what you want would be pretty much straightforward.

I'm investigating the possibility of rebasing wikitext. I.e. attempting to replay user edits on top of a changed base text. I was wondering if this is something anyone else on this list has attempted/done?
The background is a batchupload of images where I'd like to replace the description page but would like to do that without nuking contributions done to the page since it was created (or at least minimise/identify these)
