Jul 1, 2025July 2025: In Autodesk/maya-usd, focused on stabilizing NodeGraph duplication and clipboard workflows. Fixed critical duplication issues to preserve and re-establish connections during copy-paste and to correctly maintain internal references during item duplication. Strengthened regression coverage with tests for copy-paste behavior and duplication robustness, and performed code-quality improvements without changing behavior. These changes reduce user-facing defects, streamline node graph workflows, and improve long-term maintainability and reliability of duplication features. Technologies demonstrated include C++/Python code hygiene, regression testing, and test automation for duplication pipelines.
