Management of tracked changes objects for cloud document editing

Abstract:

An online document system maintains a document comprising document content. Users can edit document of the online document system by in the form of operations (which represent desired changes to document content). Instead of directly applying the received operations to the document content, the online document system consolidates operations into a tracked change object based on a common intent of the operations. To render the document content (with tracked change object) the online document system applies the set of operations to the document content and generates a tracked change indication to highlight content changed by the set of operations.
