Track changes in your LaTeX documents

Over the past year we've had loads of feedback about what people want from our history system, and it's pretty clear that our existing offering wasn't doing the job. We're pleased to be rolling out a complete overhaul today which addresses many of previous problems and hopefully fits in well with your workflow.

New Features

• See exactly who changed what. Every word that has changed is highlighted with the unique color of the person who made it. Mouse over to find out when the change was made. This should make keeping track of your collaborators much easier.

• See changes over any time period. Want to see everything that changed since you were last in the project? Since a day ago? Between the first Friday of the month and the last full-moon? No problem, you can select any range you like!

• Revert any file back to any point in time. You can undo any changes, in any file, so there's no need to worry about making any mistakes.

Many thanks to everyone who has helped us test and refine this new feature!
