>>>If you have your code in different branches with different FOXUSERS, there is an option to use a different GoFish for each of you branches (iow different foxuser.dbf), buried in Advanced options, you must activate "Allow Code References like work" first, restart GF, activate "Local Settings", restart GF.

Yeah, I've got a custom startup that lets me pick which folder VFP will open in. It remembers the last one. Changing it to use a separate FoxUser would be interesting. I'd have to store and retrieve the foxuser from a folder other than the PJX folder since it's a Git folder.
