I only meant where the only changes are "convenience" changes. Changing annotation is a change to the design. > I have investigated whether this is likely to change in Kicad and I think > the answer, whilst there is a workable solution in git, is going to be no. Many corporations do not use git or any of the other VCSs commonly used by open source projects. Cannot assume any of those "corporate" VCSs have any particular feature of git. (Though, I admit, most corporations aren't going to use Kicad (for a variety of legal reasons).) > But I really don't want to be forced into using git simply on this issue - > I very much like fossil and it has many more advantages for my workflow. > > In fact, all I need is the 'clean' functionality.
