Our server-side (commercial) product actually does handle spreadsheets as well as VBA code. If you want to see it in action, have a look at our demo repositories: https://demo.xltrail.com

The VBA component seems to use https://github.com/decalage2/oletools . What are you using for handling spreadsheets?

I wonder if there wouldn't be a solution to diff a spreadsheet by analysing the grid and the formulas, recognising patterns (formulas dragged accross), then creating a code to generate that spreadsheet, converting patterns into for loops. If the spreadsheet is reasonably consistent and logical, the resulting code shouldn't be too large. Then you would check in the resulting code in a normal git server. That would allow you to do merge and diff, and to be able to regenerate the spreadsheet from code.

Easier said than done given it has to deal with array formulas, formatting, etc. But it should be doable.

SharePoint on-prem and online do this out of the box but they might be overkill. Works really nicely with Microsoft Teams.
