Git - A Better Solution, and Stop Domino From Putting Random Values in Code Headers/Footers - Everything is Marked as Changed Right Now Merged

It's very hard to work with the current state of Domino's On-Disk Projects as the headers and footers change every time you save a design element.  An overall much more elegant system is needed for using GIT with Domino

    For this case there was also a tool called "DORA" which was unfortunately never working as it should. However, this, was this tool was designed to do, should be integrated by default within the Domino Designer On-Disk project handling. At least there should be corresponding settings, for example to disregard changes in headers, signatures or signers.

    In addition, we CAN`T use the on-disk project handling AT ALL, because there are several bugs with legacy design elements. Those elements broke when syncing back to Domino from the filesystem.
