Models are becoming first class artifacts in Software Engineering. Due to that, an infrastructure is needed to support model evolution in the same way we have for source-code. One of the key elements of such infrastructure is a version control system properly designed for models. In previous work, we presented Odyssey-VCS, a version control system tailored to fine-grained UML model elements. In this paper, we discuss the main improvements that we are incorporating on the second release of this system, which are: support for UML 2, reflective processing, explicit branching and auto-branching, generic merge algorithm, support for pessimistic concurrency policy, and support for hooks.
