Best practices for model versioning and changes management

What are the best practices to merge changes done by several developers on the same model?

Best Answer

Two developers can work on the same model, however, they should coordinate their activities carefully, synchronize and refresh the model every now and again, and be aware of what each other is doing. Version control tools such as Git are currently not supported because changes are directly and continuously updated on the repository model.


Important note: Models can be exported to a file. However, this is for moving the model between environments e.g. dev to test or prod. You should never rely on the exported file for changes.
