Properly version tables and reports etc

There is no way to find the configuration of previous versions of tables / reports (and other items that have configuration that can be changed)

Also I cannot find what has changed between different check-ins. I could not revert to a previous check-in. If I check something out I can't even tell if it has been changed or what has changed.

With a report it's going to be near impossible to say what's changed so I would just expect to be able to retrieve (for example, check-out) an earlier version.

For a table I would expect to see exactly what has changed between two checked-in versions or between my checked-out copy and the current staging copy. 

Most systems have had this sort of ability for decades. An "audit trail" or "change log".

It is not good enough to know that a table, for example, has changed. What has changed?

    Monitoring for broader interest.  

    NOTE:  There is a Performance Review component that includes a report with versioning data for tables/transforms.  One limitation is that it does not show versions for modeled objects.
