I may not manage my own personal JCL via Endevor. We do use Endevor for "cycle" 
(test, mdof, prod) JCL. If I wanted to use change management, I would maintain 
it on my Linux box and use "git". But I'm known to be just a bit strange. 
<grin> I know this sounds weird, but I already keep my source in z/OS UNIX 
files. I could keep them on my Linux system use NFS to allow z/OS to access the 
subdirectories involved. But I don't trust my Linux box quite that much ... yet.
