Thanks Martin

As far as lcVCS goes I actually think it would be good better if we could work 
with Mark and Peter to get the file format into the engine. That way if there’s 
a new property or something it’s all automatic. I think what I’ve done is 
useful in that both it has worked and that it has given me a fairly solid 
understanding of what the issues are to pass on where I can or at least discuss 
with the engine guys. There’s a healthy discussion in that direction going on 
here https://github.com/runrev/livecode/pull/1590#issuecomment-131057336

The git IDE integration on the other hand could be a plugin (paid or open 
source) or part of the IDE that comes out of the box. It’s where the magic 
happens. Stuff like the toolTip on the script line numbers showing the author 
and commit message. So I’d rather focus on that stuff.

Cheers

Monte
