Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to merging artifacts in a version control system and provide a novel and non-obvious method, system and computer program product for compositing deltas when merging artifacts in a version control system. In one embodiment, a method for compositing deltas for artifacts can be provided. The method can include generating deltas for a contributor artifact of an ancestor artifact, identifying interrelated ones of the deltas and grouping the interrelated ones of the deltas into a composited set of deltas. The method further can include rendering the composited set of deltas in a hierarchical view of a compare view for a version control data processing system in a development platform.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to comparing artifacts and provide a novel and non-obvious method, system and computer program product for multi-contextual navigation of deltas in a hierarchy. In one embodiment of the invention, a method for multi-contextual navigation can include rendering objects for an artifact utilizing a default contextual view of the objects, selecting an object in the default contextual view and directing an inward navigation to a different object in the default contextual view. Notably, responsive to the directing of the inward navigation to the different object, a different contextual view can be provided for at least a portion of the objects defined by the different object.
