Nautobot Version Control v1.0

This document describes all new features and changes in Nautobot Version Control 1.0.

Release Overview

The Nautobot Version Control app brings version control to the Nautobot open source Network Source of Truth and Network Automation Platform.

Nautobot provides a number of features to validate its data model and safeguard network configuration from errors. Adding database versioning provides another layer of assurance by enabling human review of proposed changes to production data, use of automated testing pipelines, and database rollback in the case of errors.

The database versioning is made possible by the use of a Dolt database. Dolt is a MySQL-compatible SQL database that you can fork, clone, branch, merge, push and pull just like a Git repository.

Dolt’s branch and merge versioning model allows operators to safely modify the data model on feature branches, merging to production only after validation is complete.
