Description

Data Editor Enhancement: Data Hashing

Implement functionality to add data hashing within the Data Editor. The hashable data targets are the segments listed below for both unapplied data changes and on-disk data content.

  • Whole file
  • Selected viewport data
  • Current unapplied viewport data changes.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Implement hashing for whole file, selected viewport data, and unapplied viewport changes in the Data Editor. Use a standard hashing algorithm like SHA 256. Integrate with existing data change tracking.
