I think this was the version control when paper was big :)

Over of the other points on the article was "lengthen your summary" which was to address that very low read count!

I wonder if it's possible to make a "github of research" where articles are more publicly revised only showing the most recent (celebrating Theory 2.0! And 2.0.1 -fixed typos)

I took the publish process to be: iterate on your thesis.

I saw the pattern as: Ask for feedback from a small group. Improve ask a larger, more reputable group. Repeat.

I'm not current on what constitutes a prestigious Journal today (is Nature still a top Journal?).

arxiv.org lets you submit revisions to a paper you have previously submitted and putd the label v2, v3, etc. A lot of preprints will go up for physics and computer science papers, while medrxiv.org fills the same role for health sciences.
