Several years ago, EAGLE CAD switched their binary blob schematic files to XML format. This made them much more friendly toward revision control systems like Git. Could you do the same for the cysch files?

   

Even better would be a "visual" version control system so that I could see the differences in the visual schematics rather than their text representation.

Will all the necessary project files be text-based?  It's difficult to see what's changed from one revision to the next

Yea! With the binary format it's impossible to see what changed when something breaks.  @Jobin It's October: Is there a new ETA for PSoC Creator 4.0?
