Isn’t the track changes feature of Word sufficient? I don’t use Dropbox though so perhaps it loses that..?

Just use Git and GitHub! Found that aside curious, as track changes in Word is a first class versioning implementation with word processing and editors savvy, just as Git is a first class versioning implementation that's code lines and commits savvy. Surely headspace around track changes is less "PhD" than git.
