That's not really "is it complicated with git" question, I would have to
say.  Any version control system you would build history starting from one
point going _forward_, never inserting past event as you dig back.

Surely, you could fake it by rewriting history, but I do not think SCM is
particularly geared towards such a use case *while* investigating the
history of the law and recording your findings.

I do agree that once such a discovered history is *complete*, it would be
nice to record it in a SCM with a powerful history digging capability in
chronological order, though.
