    Git for umbraco (something like versionpress for wordpress)

    Extending Umbraco
    Umbraco 7

    I really like idea of what versionpress try to do with wordpress, and with umbraco and it's great core team it can be much simple to do for umbraco then for wordpress.

    In short version press putting all changes in cms into git, so you can revert it etc.

    IMHO umbraco has this 3 key pains:

    • Upgrade process
    • Missing undo
    • Merging development site with live site

    If every change is done as throught git it can solve most of this problems and much more.

    What do you think about it?

    Hi Petr,

    Versionpress looks really nice! With Umbraco you have a few options, however not identical to versionpress (as in using git), but they still solve the same problem.

    Courier 2 - https://our.umbraco.org/projects/umbraco-pro/umbraco-courier-2/

    Chauffeur - https://our.umbraco.org/projects/collaboration/chauffeur/

    Conveyor - https://our.umbraco.org/projects/backoffice-extensions/conveyor/

    And in an upcoming Umbraco release you will have "Umbraco Deploy" (7.5?). It is a rebuild of Courier but integrated into the Core.

    Hi Per, I think these great projects do not solve problems with upgrade and undo.

    If we take git into workflow it can solve these problems in core level. Also it can give us full log (with ability to remove some actions) which can be nice benefit
