Abstract
In an approach to section level version control, a computing device fetches one or more changesets associated with a section of code to generate a change history. The computing device displays the change history. The computing device displays markers to identify changes to the section of code. The computing device sorts the change history by timestamp. The computing device displays a virtual preview of a prospective change to the section of code.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method for section level version control, the method comprising:
- fetching, by one or more computer processors, changesets associated with a section of code to generate a change history;
- displaying, by one or more computer processors, the change history;
- displaying, by one or more computer processors, markers to identify changes to the section of code;
- sorting, by one or more computer processors, the change history by timestamp;
- and
- displaying, by one or more computer processors, a virtual preview of a prospective change to the section of code.
A computer program product for section level version control, the computer program product comprising:
- one or more computer readable storage media and program instructions stored on the one or more computer readable storage media, the program instructions comprising:
- program instructions to fetch changesets associated with a section of code to generate a change history;
- program instructions to display the change history;
- program instructions to display markers to identify changes to the section of code;
- program instructions to sort the change history by timestamp;
- and
- program instructions to display a virtual preview of a prospective change to the section of code.
A computer system for section level version control, the computer system comprising:
- one or more processors;
- one or more computer readable storage media;
- and
- program instructions stored on the one or more computer readable storage media for execution by at least one of the one or more processors, the program instructions comprising:
- program instructions to fetch changesets associated with a section of code to generate a change history;
- program instructions to display the change history;
- program instructions to display markers to identify changes to the section of code;
- program instructions to sort the change history by timestamp;
- and
- program instructions to display a virtual preview of a prospective change to the section of code.
