Need intel regarding Qlikview & Git Integration

[#1]

Hello Qlikperts,

I have been using Qlikview from past few years but never got exposure or a chance to integrate version / source control with Qlikview. we are thinking about using GIT source control for our current assignment.

Our questions is, Can we implement version control on QVW files (directly) using GIT instead of going thru process like creating -prj folder & moving xml  files between source and destination ?

& on a side note we are seeking couple more options like Perforce, SVN. Can anyone shed any insight on which verision control integrates better with Qlikview in these 3 (GIT,Perforce,SVN) & help us to understand what are their limitations ?

Thanks in advance.

Thank you

Brad.

Afaik Git is not meant to deal with binary diffs. Though it probably won't care and treat the binary qvw files as text if you force it to. The usual process it to use the -prj folder and the xml files. Just like when using TFS or Subversion as source control system.

Thanks for the reply Gysbert.

I read the same from whitepapers & we are thinking to go with GIT instead of TFS or SVN.

Thank you
