I'm married to a designer who spends a lot of time in Adobe products, and her team's collaboration workflows are very similarly busted.

I've often felt like they could make great use of a version control system, and wondered why this hadn't been done before.

Good luck, this looks really promising!

It's been done for design, architecture, and engineering. There are (were, at least) specialized, integrated revision control products out there by Adobe and AutoDesk. I don't think I've encountered them in the wild, but I haven't looked too hard.

I don't think it's lack of product. I pretty convinced that there just isn't any significant level of adoption. Revision control is just an intrinsically difficult thing for people to grasp. I'm sure more than a few folks here have walked into software shops that were either abusing or simply not using any revision control.

Look at the state of the art for a product made by programmer for programmers: https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/howto/rever.... I was trying to explain this process last week. It's just not easy.
