Merging Branches with MLAPP files – Can’t merge layout changes
I have been developing some pretty complicated matlab apps, and have begun collaborating on them with a colleague, but we’ve found that the merge tool does not allow for merging the automatically generated code e.g. layouts, adding callbacks etc. I have read multiple issues posted to the community, and the closest one to an answer describes unzipping the mlapp file merging, and rezipping. This can work, but is far too risky if the way App Designer ingests data changes in the future, which would render our code unusable and unedittable.
Of course, we could export to an M file and merge there, but then we lose the ease of changing layouts in App Designer. This all seems like a lose-lose situation, is there any prospect of adding the ability to merge the whole mlapp file?I have been developing some pretty complicated matlab apps, and have begun collaborating on them with a colleague, but we’ve found that the merge tool does not allow for merging the automatically generated code e.g. layouts, adding callbacks etc. I have read multiple issues posted to the community, and the closest one to an answer describes unzipping the mlapp file merging, and rezipping.
