This question also arises with code history trackers – Code history trackers are tools that react to what the developer do by creating first-class objects that represent the change made to the system. In this paper, we evaluate the capacity of different code history trackers to represent, also as first-class objects, the dependencies between those changes. We also present a representation for dependencies that works with the event model of Epicea, a fine-grained and incremental code history tracker.Show less >
