## Project history and usage

Diversion Desktop is the macOS and Windows graphical client for Diversion's cloud-backed version-control service.

### Project history

Diversion was developed as a cloud version-control platform with its own repository model. The desktop client became one of several official interfaces alongside a CLI, WebUI, and Unreal Engine plugin.

### Adoption history

Diversion targets teams working with large assets and game-development workflows and provides desktop, command-line, web, and Unreal Engine interfaces. Its documentation positions automatic cloud synchronization and background change tracking as simpler alternatives to explicit Git staging, pushing, and pulling.

### How it is used

Users sign into the desktop application, create or clone a Diversion repository, place project files in its working folder, review automatically tracked changes, and commit them. Commits synchronize through the Diversion service without a separate push or pull step by default.

### Why package nerds care

Diversion is notable as a packaged desktop client for a proprietary cloud-native version-control system rather than a graphical front end to Git. Package users receive the client software, while repositories and collaboration depend on the Diversion service.

### Timeline

- Desktop-client era: Diversion documents native clients for macOS and Windows alongside CLI and web workflows.
- Current workflow: Official quickstart centers account login, repository creation or cloning, automatic tracking, commits, and cloud synchronization.

### Related projects

- Diversion's documentation compares its workflow implicitly with Git concepts such as repositories, commits, branches, merges, cloning, and syncing, while implementing them through the Diversion service.
