Abstract

Over the last few years, building software engineering teams are confronted with the security, scalability and transparent management of version control systems, particularly in decentralized and distributed development environments. Current blockchain version control models are in large theoretical, and do not contribute features to popular tools such as Git version control system or CI/CD pipelines, and do not put a focus on developer user experience. In this work, we introduce an efficient and scalable blockchain-based version control system aiming for secure and decentralized collaboration in software development. Our model is based on smart-contract-driven commit verification, IPFS-supported off-chain data persistence and lightweight consensus protocols for data integrity, access control and cross system loose time synchronous data synchronization. When you consider how seamlessly Compose integrates with Git-based environments and DevOps pipelines, developers can begin using the system without causing too much disturbance in your existing workflows. The system is evaluated with respect to its feasibility, robustness and potential ability to refine collaborative software engineering in distributed settings by means of performance benchmarks, developer usability studies, and case studies.
