I'd like to be sure if vestal_versions does support versioned associations (it seems like it doesn't) before switching out to another versioning gem that can support versioned associations e.g => has_versioning. I haven't looked at the code yet but I couldn't find anything related with versioned associations from the readme file or the issue section on github. Help would be appreciated!
Versioned associations using vestal_versions?

I'm looking for something that appears to be very close to your needs. But I don't need to revert the associated objects, just to record them. I was thinking of handle it in a nosql way. So I can save the model version and the associations would be embedded documents.
So I can compare versions in a more comprehensive way. Right now I use paper_trail, but as it can't handle associations, it's not possible to store the tags associated to a model and see how it changes through time.
(At the moment of writing this) There is an associations branch in the official vestal_versions repository, It is still a basic idea and isn't merged yet in the master branch. So I decided to go with another versioning gem, specifically acts_as_revisable following the instructions in this blog post.
