Version control, structured merge, and CRDTs
Patch theory and structured-merge VCS (Roundy Darcs, Mimram-Di Giusto categorical patches, Angiuli-Morehouse-Licata-Harper homotopical patch theory, JDime, GumTree, Schürr triple graph grammars, Git); CRDTs and local-first sync (Shapiro et al., Kleppmann JSON-CRDT, Cambria 2020/2021, Kleppmann Local-First, Designing Data-Intensive Applications); content-addressed storage and distributed databases (Merkle, Dynamo, Cassandra, Dremel, PRISM).

Algebraic data, bidirectional transformations, and structured merge
An annotated bibliography across five adjacent lines of research: 1. schemas as algebraic theories; 2. bidirectional lenses and profunctor optics; 3. format-preserving parsing and unparsing; 4. structured-merge version control; and 5. data exchange + cross-protocol translation

Parsing, structured data, and schema languages
Parser generators and incremental parsing (tree-sitter, packrat, Spoofax, Wagner-Graham); format-preserving round-tripping (Augeas, BiYacc, resugaring, de Jonge-Visser layout preservation); wire-format and configuration-language specs (ATProto Lexicon, FHIR, GraphQL, OpenAPI, JSON Schema, Protocol Buffers, Avro, Parquet, MessagePack, WebAssembly, CUE, Dhall, Nickel, Starlark).
