Hi Buck,

Git has one big issue that makes it only marginally useful: it's a source
control system and it doesn't know anything at all about IBM i objects.

I wouldn't consider this a fair assessment of Git. Git manages source file
versions. You can add additional software (i.e. "make") to create build
scripts and the like.

I have entered a new RFE:

This RFE is about moving forward in development with a goal of being
able to do RPG development in conjunction with GIT. I know some people
already do this, but it seems a bit hard to do. I am looking for a more
hierarchical approach. An enhancement to the iProject perspective.

It is hard to do within the context of RDi iProjects. I think IBM's
intended solution is one of the Rational products. Git has one big
issue that makes it only marginally useful: it's a source control system
and it doesn't know anything at all about IBM i objects.

I don't have the budget for a real IBM i-aware Change Management system,
else I'd be using that.
