TMDL - Track Measures Individually

Currently, the TMDL format treats measures as part of the table object they belong to. Instead, they should be tracked as separate objects (or we should have the option to serialize them this way).


In my opinion, this is much less friendly for version control than the Tabular Editor folder structure I currently use. I want to use TMDL but I need to be able to run diffs on measures, not just the tables the measures belong to.


According to Rui Romano (via LinkedIn), this idea is "on the backlog".

RE: TMDL - Track Measures Individually

I'd also like to see that serialization option for Column and Relationships. These are items with a higher frequency of new items being added and would be prone to merge conflicts.
