Deep Dive: Resolving Merge Conflicts in PLC Logic using AutomationView’s Visual Diff
For decades, collaborative PLC programming was virtually impossible. If two engineers edited the same ladder logic file simultaneously, the result was a binary collision—whoever saved last overwrote the other’s work. By integrating native Git version control, AutomationView fundamentally solved the concurrency problem. However, concurrent engineering inevitably leads to merge conflicts. Resolving these conflicts in raw […]
