Hi,

for some systems e.g. Clear Case and RTC we have so called synchronizers that push the changes back and forth. It is possible to write such systems (which can be very expensive since you try to create and maintain a bidirectional transformation), I am aware it has been done. However, I am not aware of anything for GIT.

I am also not a big fan of synchronizing. You have effectively data duplication and if you change on both ends you have to deal with conflicting changes. I would rather suggest to go with one system and leave it at that.

There is a RTC-GIT bridge, as far as I know, so you would be able to use GIT SCM with RTC. But even doing this comes with a price. For example you would have to create something to load from GIT in builds and you would loose the access to the changes in a build result.
