Not directly related to this topic but I need some advice on version control which I want to embed in an open source applications. We are building an GPLed app similar to ‘googledocs’ and are exploring which version control to use in the back end. Subversion has issues as it tracks ‘project versions’ and not ‘document version’. Can anyone throw light on which version control to use if we want a ‘google docs’ like versioning? This will be a RoR application and the verions control system should play well with RoR.

hi,
I don’t think you really need some existing version control.
won’t acts_as_versioned suffice? or do you need some more advanced functionality, and which?
