Is there a text-based way to build workflows?

Use the same "objects" but define the workflow as text file, that you can version-control, comment on, etc.

In its most basic form, a workflow is just a .plist file - but I wouldn't want to edit raw XML.

Can't you toss all of the files for a Workflow into Git already? As @dfay mentions, the net result is a plist file and Git should be able to do diffs and rollbacks on that.

Yes, but reading diffs of .plist is not easy, and being able to edit workflows in plain text has lots of other benefits, it's not just about version control.
