git itself can start action after git execution. So it would simple be possible to automate FoxBin2Prg to create binaries. This is called (git) hooks. Do not mix up with (vfp) project hook.
OTOH as long as you run VFP while using git, a project might watch through a project hook via eventbinding, checking the??2 files for change and start binary creation. Might a bit tricky to not mix up with text creation, stay in synch, watch for manual merging and so on, but could be done. The project news it's parts and can deal with any change to there text representation.
Get me right, this is plain theorie I will not follow or recomend.
>Create project hooks to automatically generate the text files with every build, it they're needed. That way, they're ready to go when you Commit and Push. I don't see how you can update the binaries automatically after a PULL,
