Backlot 0.7.0 beta 2 adds sending a project to someone and taking it back.

  • File > Send a Copy saves the project as one .backlot file, with its history, attachments, saved call sheets and reports, then offers the share menu for Mail, Messages or AirDrop. The other person double-clicks it to open it in Backlot.
  • When they send it back, double-click it. Backlot recognizes the project it came from, says what changed on each side, and offers to replace your copy. Your copy is saved whole in the project's backups folder first; open that backup the same way to go back.
  • Backlot does not combine two sets of edits. Leave your copy alone while someone else has the project. If both copies changed, Backlot says so before you replace, and Open as Separate Project keeps both.

Also: the user guide's install section no longer tells you to clear the quarantine flag, which stopped being needed with beta 1.
