Mark, I think I'm defining version control in a stricter sense than Galaxy's auto-archiving provides.

The internal version control system for Galaxy itself does versioning in the sense that I would define it. It "publishes" multiple versions of Galaxy to a server that is hooked into Galaxy's version chooser. Each type of Galaxy user (Studio-Llite-Free) gets a different menu of versions in Galaxy's updater component. Users for Studio-Lite-Free can then choose "their" version.

We also do "staging" where certain versions of Galaxy are not published for certain users. For example, users in our QA program see more "versions" than do Studio users. Unit testers see every iteration. That's what comes to mind when version control is mentioned--it includes "staging" and servers.

All that said, the Galaxy archiving feature (which did not slip my feeble mind) is a great, local version control system, although, given my firm commitment to truth in advertising, I could not possibly say that. (Oblique Francis Urquhart reference from House of Cards BBC miniseries!).

Best,

Sorry no version control for projects...You can manage which version
of Galaxy you use. that's next on our list for the Professional version.

Strictly speaking that's true, but the autoarchiving feature is the
next best thing. Jerry's either being way too modest here or simply
forgetting about some of the features in Galaxy.
