Dear RDFLib community, Please note the addition of the long turtle RDF serialization option ( g.serialize(format="longturtle")) in the 6.1.1 release of RDFLib (current).
This format is just turtle - parsable with an un-altered turtle parser - but with more linebreaks and indentations than normal. The purpose of the format is to better present RDF text data to version control systems such as Git. The motivation for the format is the realisation that many of us are using Git and systems like BitBucket, GitHub and GitLab for RDF data version control and that we also all use turtle as the main RDF text serialization. An example of a long turtle serialized ontology is the TERN Ontology, made by frequent RDFLib contributor Edmond is: https://github.com/ternaustralia/ontology_tern/blob/master/docs/tern.ttl This ontology is under active development and you can see longturtle doing its thing in GitHub diffs suc as https://github.com/ternaustralia/ontology_tern/pull/137/files. It looks like some enhancements could be made though, such as more determanisim on the sorting of the serialization. Any feedback on this format or on RDF text files and version control in general would be great.
