(* This module builds a VCS like interface on top of Dag, used to build
   a Dag instance by the State Transaction Machine.

   This data structure does not hold system states:
   - Edges are meant to hold a diff.
     The delta between two states, or equivalent data like a vernac_expr whose
     execution corresponds to the application of the diff.
   - Nodes are empty, unless one adds explicit info.
     The info could be a system state, obtaind by applying all the diffs
     from the initial state, but is not necessarily there.
   As a consequence, "checkout" just updates the current branch.

   The type [id] is the type of commits (a node in the dag)
   The type [Vcs.t] has 3 parameters:
    ['info] data attached to a node (like a system state)
    ['diff] data attached to an edge (the commit content, a "patch")
    ['kind] extra data attached to a branch (like being the master branch)
