Extraction of traceable differences between multiple versions of source code

Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In a software development using a version control system, it is hard to capture details of differences between two versions because such differences often include a lot of changes. Moreover, if one of the changes between the two versions includes a fault, all the changes must be undone and some of them will be done again. This paper proposes a new method for extracting differences between multiple versions of source code. In our proposed method, all operations executed by a developer on an integrated development environment are recorded in detail, and source code differences are extracted at short intervals by using a history of the recorded operations. The method can limit and determine respective changes included in a difference, and therefore it makes the difference traceable and understandable. Moreover, it enables restoration of source code at arbitrary points of time. The representation of differences is designed based on a highly portable XML format.
