Title: Data Version Control for the Targets Package
Description: In computationally demanding data analysis pipelines, the
        'targets' R package (2021, <doi:10.21105/joss.02959>) maintains
        an up-to-date set of results while skipping tasks that do not
        need to rerun. This process increases speed and increases trust
        in the final end product. However, it also overwrites old
        output with new output, and past results disappear by default.
        To preserve historical output, the 'gittargets' package
        captures version-controlled snapshots of the data store, and
        each snapshot links to the underlying commit of the source
        code. That way, when the user rolls back the code to a previous
        branch or commit, 'gittargets' can recover the data
        contemporaneous with that commit so that all targets remain up
        to date.
