About:
db-vcs is a command-line tool that applies version control principles to MySQL database schemas and migrations. It allows developers to track, branch, and merge database schema changes just like source code, ensuring consistency across development environments. This tool simplifies database change management by treating schema definitions as code artifacts.
Key Features:
  • Schema versioning and branching
  • Migration tracking and management
  • CLI-based workflow integration
  • MySQL-specific optimizations
Use Cases:
  • Managing database schema changes across development teams
  • Tracking and auditing database modifications over time
  • Synchronizing database states between different environments
Alternatives:
  • Liquibase – More enterprise-focused with broader database support, but heavier and more complex
  • Flyway – Popular migration tool with similar goals, but different migration philosophy and workflow
