Applies to situation where there is more than one repo where to pull. AFAIK
there isn't for Gambas.

Well, backups are something you have to do anyway. Unless everything
important in you computer is on the git repo. I don't think so.

Maybe, I didn't get that far.

I didn't like how this source control was implemented, I find it extremely
clumsy.

I'm OK with both. Maybe some nice GUI would hide the complexity and make
git great... sounds just quite a bit of work.
