>Anyone have pointers on using Git with VFP? How about Subversion? Are there preferences for one vs. the other?


Not real experience but I've set up a CI system for a presentation (subversion and TeamCity). It uses 'twofox' from Christof Wollenhaupt - the link from Gerhard

See message #1599402



'twofox' serializes the project/form/report/label/classLibs into xml.

Sequence
- you use a command from within the IDE to serialize those (project/form/report/label/classLibs)
- you commit via the filesystem (prg, h, and the serialized project/form/report/label/classLibs) and leave out the 'binaries' ( pjx/pjt/scx/sct/vcs/vct, ...) and 'derived' ( fxp/err)
....

- you update via the filesystem
- then in the IDE you can deserialize the xml files to reconstruct the pjx/pjt/scx/sct/vcs/vct, ...


Oh, and I have used the 'extern' of subversion to store everything that is common to all projects, a folder Tools
Tools
 - Build
    - serialize/deserialize
    - a couple of bat and config.fpw to be used on the build machine
- DevUtils
   - TrayNotifierInstaller.msi
- FoxUnit
     - ...
    - ...
The real challenge is TeamCity since vfp is not a console application - I've cracked that but that was not your question
