In the daily workflow with the lcVCS IDE plugin the only addition is after I save my stack in LiveCode and want to commit the changes to the repository I go to the SourceTree app https://www.sourcetreeapp.com to review my changes, type a note and then commit the changes to the repository. I can add the term 'resolve' and an issue number for an issue I have entered in bitbucket i.e. "resolve issue #130" along with my note and my commit note will be added to the issue thread in bit bucket and the issue will be marked resolved automatically. As I said I am no expert. My big accomplishment was creating a branch and merging the branch back into my main branch. I have only done that once. So I still have more to learn there but without using more advanced features I still find lcVCS and version control very helpful. There is work to be done initially to set up the repository in github and locally and configure bitbucket. I needed support from Monte in doing this part. Once it is set up I don't need to think about that. There were also some changes in my stacks i needed to do to reduce false positives for conflicts by adding lcVCSExport handlers to various cards and stacks. I still get false positives from objects resizing or moving or having a value of a property change. I don't really worry about them too much now. So not having having a great deal of knowledge of version control has not prevented from using lcVCS.
