Wanted: Version Control for Real Stuff @ Wired Design.
Desktop manufacturing tools like 3-D printers have spawned a new community of amateur makers who’d like to build upon each other’s ideas. But, co-creating actual stuff is harder than it sounds. Why? Unlike open software, which has popular collaborative tools like Git (and websites built on it, like GitHub), Subversion, and Mercurial, hardware has no system for version control.
Make a robot friend with Adafruit’s CRICKIT – A Creative Robotics & Interactive Construction Kit. It’s an add-on to our popular Circuit Playground Express, FEATHER and other platforms to make and program robots with CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. Start controlling motors, servos, solenoids. You also get signal pins, capacitive touch sensors, a NeoPixel driver and amplified speaker output. It complements & extends your boards so you can still use all the goodies on the microcontroller, now you have a robotics playground as well.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
I was hoping Open Design Engine (https://opendesignengine.net/) would meet this need, but the site seems to have stalled. They were supposed to go to Open Beta in November (6 months ago!), but looks like this never happened.
