Is there any way to use version control in Dashboards and Looks with Github?
I'm facing a challenge of maintaining "production" and "development" versions of Looks and Dashboards.

There's no specific version controlling for dashboard but one thing you can do is get LookML of Dashboard and save it in Model folder in develop where version controlling happen. If you make any changes in future in dashboard you will have to update the dashboard lookml file using current dashboard lookml and commit and deploy changes.

The problem with this is that if a user has a dashboard bookmarked, you can't override the dashboard with the new LookML to preserve links and alerts. The process seems to place another version of the dashboard in the same folder if you import from the LookML folder.
