https://github.com/oderby/VVD This tool allows you to compute the differences between two GH files, it allows you to visualize the differences It allows merging of files if the changes have been implemented cleanly, and there are no overlaps in the changes This tool is useful for the research group when multiple researchers are collaborating on large files at the same time and the differences between files need to be visualized or merged.
Hydra: Uploads scripts to a public Github environment and website. This is not suitable for our research group since some of the files need to stay confidential until after publications have been published.
AutoGraph is a suite of tools that will help you organize the objects on your Grasshopper canvas. The main feature is a visual graph layout algorithm editor that will automatically arrange the objects on your canvas based on a set of parameters. This tool might be useful but not relevant to the current task
Githopper "_Main Features : (copied form the food for Rhino website)
- Custom Git commands could be added without the need to modify the plugin’s source code.
- Complex situations are avoided as much as possible; making it safer for experimentation.
- Git operations are simplified without reducing their capability. functions: committing, branching, merging etc. seem to be available in this plugin._ "
Conclusions literature review:
Githopper seems to be working for branching, commiting, merging etc. and I would like to try this plugin https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kR_wmmpvx4&list=PLexAqzvLGzqF2broyyQi4fwY8e7gYZegs
