Good tip! I was aware there were some options along this line but unfortunately using LV(more specifically, "G") was a project requirement.
You briefly touch on another point that is worth repeating. Source control with LV is terrible.
- meemoo 13y agoSource control is fine in NoFlo's JSON graph format or DSL.
- RogerL 13y agoSo, are you saying when I diff I am looking at textual representations of the graphs? Which is fine, that is what I'd expect. It's how I'd implement it. But isn't that a huge clue about the fundamental weakness of graphical representation - as soon as you try to do anything nontrivial it's back to text. And back to text for a very good reason, not because the right git plugin hasn't been written yet.
- seanmcdirmid 13y agoOne could write a real 2D graph diffing system, it is not inconceivable, at least. However, you won't get this for free by diffing a textual representation of the graph. One simple hack is to take each version, set transparency to 50%, and then overlay them.
