/abapTimeMachine

ABAP Time Machine provides a much needed way to look at past versions of code in a consistent way. It also provides a sort of git-blame for ABAP (shows the request and author that last modified each line of code).

Quality Gate Status

abapTimeMachine provides a simple way to look at past versions of classes, function groups, etc, as a whole (as opposed to the crappy native include-oriented approach). Alternatively, it also partially emulates git-blame by showing "what revision and author last modified each line of a file" for any given version.

Why

ABAP's versioning system is unbelievably bad. There is no native way to see how a whole class or a whole function group were at a given time in the past. Besides, it makes it very hard to find out which user was responsible for which changes. abapTimeMachine is here to solve both these problems.

How
