Title: XSLT to strip timestamps?
Post by: Wowbagger on September 02, 2009, 02:19:45 am

Does anybody have an already existing XSLT to strip out the various timestamps from exported XMI files? Those timestamps, and a few other items, are causing me no end of grief when merging commits from my developers, as they pretty much guarantee that ANY merge will have conflicts that require manual intervention, as the tool will see those time stamp changes as deltas and won't know they don't really matter.

Ideally, I'd like to strip ANYTHING that amounts to a "change that isn't a change" - timestamps, file path info, etc.

I thought I saw an option somewhere to not include timestamps in the xmi export (or something similar)
I just have no idea where that option would be.

The Tools-Options dialog has an item "XML specifications" (in the tree on the left) with a check box "Update Last Save Time In Controlled Packages".
