If I understand your suggestion correctly, it amounts to sorting and
applying migrations based on timestamp. I think real time is not the
right dimension for this as progress on different branches is not
coordinated by time. Rather, I suggest to apply migrations in the order
of their corresponding revision numbers. This approach doesn't
guarantee that there can be no conflicts when branches are merged, but
I think this can't be guaranteed anyway.
