  • Spine Project File (binary or text)

Was wondering if you have put any thought to having the spine project files being a text format rather then binary. It is rather hard to version control binary files as I'm sure you can understand.

I am aware that the project file in a text format may not be something that you could merge or even edit by hand but, it would still be nice to see changes from version to version.

Anyway I would like to hear your thoughts on the mater.

Keep up the good work..

The project is very complex, as it has to handle the data in a way that ALL later versions of Spine can open. I don't think it makes sense to try to keep it human readable, as that is what the exported data is for. 🙂
