[Qgis-user] QGIS file version control

[Hugh Kelley]

Hi,

Is anyone aware of any thought or work put into version control for a qgis
file?

I had a look through the open issues on github and didn't turn anything up.
I found some conversation about data versioning on stack overflow but
nothing specific to the qgis file itself.

Unzipping the qgz file and tracking the qgs file with git worked fairly
smoothly for the few basic tests i just tried. it would become much more
complicated as some other files get created for more complicated maps are
built. For instance the .qgd files are binaries which aren't handled very
well in git.

If anyone is currently using git to version control their qgis projects i
would be interested in hearing how they manage it and any best practices
they could share.

Thanks

Hugh
