I see a great advantage using diffs as history of pages - a trick to make revisions much lighter, even for very heavy pages. If I'm not wrong Dropbox uses this approach for revisions.

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)
