Please share how you do version control for Lotus Notes/Domino development.

I want to put in our SVN repository all the scripts, views, custom forms, script libraries, etc.

Semi-automated methods are accepted as well (i.e. if I find a way to get all the event scripts for a form in one file, and to be able to place it back in Notes Designer as a whole file).

The openntf project Design Catalog can be used for version control. It uses dxl technique mentioned by kerr. www.openntf.org/projects/pmt.nsf/ProjectLookup/DesignCatalog

At lotusphere the lotus911 people mentioned they used the Design Catalog in combination with Trigger Happy. www.openntf.org/projects/pmt.nsf/ProjectLookup/Trigger%20Happy
