Would it be an option for you to keep a copy of every FM document in plain text? This is not as cumbersome as it sounds, since you can install an Extendscript which saves the plain text copy automatically whenever you choose File > Save. I've set up something similiar to have a readable copy for Git version management. If you're interested, I can post the Extendscript on the mailing list.

Hi Jo,

I'm also using Git, and the option of having a plaintext version for Git compares sounds appealing. Can you elaborate on the process you're using, anything to look out for, and post the script?

I can see great potential for this, but wonder whether extraneous info will clutter up a Git compare (I'm using the SourceTree GUI client on Windows, which has a good compare normally; and I also can use GitLab's compare on the server-side to see diffs), or whether relevant diffs might get lost due to formatting diffs or something?

Thanks much,
-Monique
