Gitostory

Overview

Gitostory is a Unity package that enables you to view and compare previous versions of your assets without altering the current state.

With Gitostory, you can:

• View the history of any asset directly within Unity.
• Compare previous versions of prefabs, scripts, and other assets without rolling back.
• Rollback to any previous version if needed.
• Gain insights and side by side comparison for prefabs.
• Get current state of file and discard current changes if you want.
• Add files to .gitignore with one click.

Asset Store

Gitostory will soon be available as a free asset in the Version Control section of the Unity Asset Store.

• Git installed on your system.
