I'd also recommend installing TortoiseGit which provides Explorer integration for Git which might be sufficient for simple scenarios. The visual tools are nice if you need to interact with multiple branches and roll back and jump forward frequently.

The Project Explorer found in VFPX ( https://github.com/DougHennig/ProjectExplorer )
integrates git support ( check image ).
