Abstract

A document often goes through many revisions before it is finalized. In the normal document creation process, newer revisions overwrite older ones and only the final revision is kept. At any stage of document creation, it might be desirable to see how the document came to its current form or to revert back to a previous revision. Conventional version control tools such as CVS could help authors do exactly this. However, these tools are unlikely to be adopted by non-technical document authors due to the overhead of managing a repository and the tools' learning curves. This paper presents an approach called version-aware documents that embeds versioning data within the document thus making version control for single documents a seamless part of the authoring process.
