ABSTRACT
Resource modeling projects generally are performed by a team and involve many stages in which several different documents are generated. To better efficiency and productivity there is the need to organize and track all the modifications made by the team on the project as they happen. To track all the changes in real time can be challenging. The solution proposed is the use of a version control system, which is the management of changes made to a collection of information, such as documents and computer programs. The version control system use is well established in software development. So, in a versioning system all the modification history of the files generated by different people on the team are saved for a later analysis of the chronological development of the project. Also, the version control system provides metrics such as number of files added by each user and amount of modifications made on each document to determine the contribution of each team member during the project progress. An experiment was performed using a Git platform to manage a resource modeling project executed by a group of students to verify the quality control and efficacy of the version control system applied to resource modeling projects. All the metrics available are used to evaluate the performance of each team member. Additionally, the project manager can examine, accept and reject all modifications made as they occur in real time, permitting a better control of information for further report.
