    <p>We have been using Domino on a large project for years without any real source-control (other-than server backups). So, I was rather pleased when I noted the latest Designer 8.5.3 has potential integration with SVN.</p> <p>I was unable get SVN working just by following the <a href="http://heidloff.net/home.nsf/dx/09152011024951AMNHEA28.htm" rel="nofollow noreferrer">original instructions</a> for as already <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9128812/installing-source-control-with-lotus-notes-designer-8-5-3-gef-sdk-missing">noted on Stackoverflow</a> the update sites have moved. The <a href="http://www.openntf.org/blogs/openntf.nsf/d6plinks/NHEF-8RJASZ" rel="nofollow noreferrer">solution posted on OpenNTF</a>, only half worked, with Domino still croaking at GEF, Mylyn and some other missing plugins. After finding and installing them, I still do not seem to have source-control integration.</p> <p>What I have now is the ability to create on-disk projects but I do not seem to have any source-control features. I was expecting to see menu items for commit, update, revert …etc – is this how it works in Domino?</p> <p>I can of course create a repository to commit the on-disk project to but I was hoping for integration inside of Domino. Whilst having years of experience in programming I’m a novice with Eclipse. I assume that I’ve done something wrong with installing the plugins? it was certainly a complicated process trying track down missing plugins.</p> <p>Has anyone tried this recently and succeeded? What files do I need to install, setting tweak, …etc, to ensure this works? I’m happy to install my Designer fresh and follow a list of instructions.</p> <p>Also, am I understanding how the integration works? Will I get command integration within Designer or do I have to work separately with the on-disk projects? I was really hoping for this be easy to integrate into normal workflow so I can convert the team to using it (adding too many extra or complicated steps is unlikely to create a conversion).</p> <p>I posted a screenshot of my installed plugins in case this is helpful.</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/ekfxQ.jpg" alt="enter image description here"></p> <p><b>Mercurial?</b> As an aside, has anyone used Mercurial instead of SVN with Designer? I would rather use Hg as I’m using this for related Dojo projects and will be easier for the team to use one system. However, I will settle for SVN as any source-control is better than non.</p>
