Abstract: Techniques are described for version control with selectable file portion synchronization between an IDE and a repository, so that a version control system of this disclosure either synchronizes or ignores different portions of a file during synchronization, in accordance with user selections. In one example, a method includes evaluating content entered into a file. The method further includes detecting a starting delimiter and a stopping delimiter in the file. The method further includes copying a first portion of the file outside the starting delimiter and the stopping delimiter to a repository, and refraining from copying a second portion of the file inside the starting delimiter and the stopping delimiter to the repository.

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.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to traceability visualization in a model driven development (MDD) tool and provide a method, system and computer program product for visualization of implicit relationships in a trace query for MDD. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for visualization of implicit relationships in a trace query for MDD can be provided. The method can include issuing a model query in an MDD tool, retrieving an implicit relationship in response to the model query, generating a trace link for the implicit relationship and displaying the trace link in a trace query diagram for the MDD tool.
