What’s the best way to version and track prompts?
Store prompts in git with IDs, owners, and a changelog entry explaining what changed and why. Tie each prompt to eval metrics so you can see impact per version. Use branches and PRs for review. Tag production releases and keep a rollback plan. Documentation matters more than fancy tools.
In practice
Add a ‘metrics snapshot’ to every PR so reviewers see real effects, not just text diffs.
