GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 165226
Image Versioning
Last modified: 2018-05-24 11:24:15 UTC
Not sure if anyone's posted something like this before, but why can't we have image versioning built into The Gimp just like we do with text documents? The only problem I could see is it could create a gigantic file, but it would be nice.... Any thoughts?
Not a new idea but I haven't found an enhancement request for it. IIRC there used to be a plug-in that offered this functionality.
This relates to bug #94364, although what you have in mind is probably a lot more complicated and a lot less likely to happen. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 94354 *** *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 94354 ***
Well, actually the plans for a GEGL-based GIMP go a lot further. The plan is to include the complete history (in a parametric way) and to allow to undo/redo all changes that ever happened to the image.
I am reopening this bug since it's certainly not a duplicate of bug #94364. If at all it could be argued that it is a duplicate of bug #148930.
Sorry, my mistake -- didn't actually intend to close this but forgot that I had clicked that button.
my original intention was not for saving the entire history, but for saving "snapshot" versions of the image. It would be a proactive step for the user to go and save the image as a new version... It would make things easier I think - I save 10 versions of the same image (currently as image_name_v1-x) before I get to the final one...
