Maybe Git then interface with smth like teamcity to apply your changes. Honestly you are asking too much. The classic
problemis to find a tool that would translate DDL diffs into ALTER commands, if  
you want to store pure DDL CREATE statements. I have watched many presentations of people on the same boat as you, and
theyall implemented their own solutions. Good luck with your solution and keep  
us posted, many ppl might benefit from this.
