Hi,

We have quite a few QGIS users, who are used to working in ArcGIS for Desktop 
on an Esri Enterprise Geodatabase. These users want to apply versioned editing 
as known from ArcGIS.

Their basic requirements for versioned editing in QGIS can be summarized as 
follows:
- Versioned editing is based on data contained in a central multi-user data 
repository (database), preferably PostgreSQL/PostGIS.
- The parent version/default version/master version is the "current" dataset 
that all ordinary users access for data browsing purposes.
- Editing users should be able to create independent versions (or branches) of 
the data set - either in its entirety or for selected layers/tables in the data 
set.
- It is not an ultimate requirement that a specific version/branch can be 
shared by multiple users.
- But one user must be able to edit, whereafter another user can review, 
approve and commit.
- Generally the "parent version/branch" (default version in ArcGIS terminology) 
should not be edited, but this need not be prevented by the versioning solution.
- The individual user chooses which version/branch he/she wants to edit at the 
beginning of an editing session.
- At any given time a user should be able to either delete (if edits are to be 
dropped again) or commit the version/branch to the parent/default version.
- A complete history of editing or the ability to regret commit of 
version/branch is NOT needed.

Do anyone know of any solutions, that will allow QGIS users to achieve this?


Kind regards,
