Change Tracking/Synchronization of Data and Structures

This Project is related to MySQL web-client, phpMyAdmin. The idea is to add a new module in the application which would help the users of phpMyAdmin to migrate changes from one database to another.
Possible changes could be related to:

• Adding/removing/ updating tuples,
• Creating/dropping tables,
• Changing schema and maintaining table evolution from state A to B.
