After many years of working alone, I have just this week begun working intimately with another developer for my primary client. We expect this to continue. He is a very experienced C++ programmer but new to VFP.

He immediately mentioned Subversion to me and asked where he could find info on how to make it work with Foxpro.

So we will be very interested in this thread. Please say more.

He is also interested in editors which could be aware of Foxpro syntax and context.
