I still have to find somebody who worked with LabView that does not hate it.
It is a total abomination.
It is a total abomination.
It's also fairly good for making money: the oil and gass industry seems to like using it (note: n = 1, I only did one oil n gas project with it).
Also, since you;ve done only one project with it, how hard was it to pick it up and learn?
Labview does have diff and merge tools. It feels kind of clunky in practice, kind of like diffing/merging MS Office files. In my experience people think of versions of LabView code as immutable snapshots along a linear timeline and don't really expect to have merge commits. Code versions may as well be stored as separate folders with revision numbers. The mindset is more hardware-centric; e.g., when rewiring a physical data acquisition system, reverting a change just means doing the work over again differently. So LabView's deficiencies in version control don't stand out as much as they would in pure software development.

If you know other languages I would say it's very easy to pick up. Probably the easiest out of any language out there. Instead of heaving to guess/learn the syntax, you just pick functionality from icons/lists and drag and drop.
