> Current environment in SL is far from optimal for that kind of project:
There are many things SL can do to improve project collaboration, not just with scripts. I can share the problems I've encountered trying to work on projects with others if the scope increases. > Version management in RL is usually addressed by using a VCS such as > git or mercurial. But for SL, that would suppose copy/pasting scripts > one by one from the viewer to local disk files before committing to > the repository. My solution to this is to use external source control and append the SVN revision number to the end of the script name. when it's copy/pasted into SL. Not optimal, but so far it gets the job done with the least confusion. > Hence, both for version management and advanced editing, it would > really help if all scripts from an object could just easily be > exported to a local folder, then updated back from the local copy (2 > buttons in the object edit floater: import and export). Yes please. > Since the official viewer already allows: > - copy/pasting any modifiable script > - and opening them in an external editor, > should I understand that modifiable script export is a functionality > that Linden Lab's viewers already provides? Or do we really have to be > the creator of the script? Policy question. Technically not an item for this list, but there is no place to ask questions like these. See also: https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/MISC-3263 Linden Lawyer should have office hours, more recently submitted to the community manager via email as per the usergroup guidelines, no response. These Jiras might also be interesting. https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/VWR-14023 (drag and drop uploading) And I could have sworn I'd created a Jira regarding a Second Life inventory version control system and even got some feedback from Nyx about it, but I can't find anything about it. Good luck!
