title: Using Git with VB6
body: <p>Our company has a large codebase in VB6, and we currently use VSS which, for all that we hate about it, at least integrates into the VB6 IDE.</p>
  
  <p>My own team, which is using .NET, are now looking into alternative SCMs like my personal favourite, Git. With <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/gitextensions/" rel="noreferrer">Git Extensions</a>, it seems we will be able to integrate Git commands into the Visual Studio IDE pretty well.</p>
  
  <p>However, the question has been asked: could Git be used for our VB6 codebase too?</p>
  
  <p>Of course I assume the files themselves would work fine in git repositories, but no doubt developers would complain if they had to use the command-line to do all their source control. But has anyone had any experience using VB6 and Git? Any integration available from within the VB6 IDE? Or is it perhaps not that much of a hassle to not have the IDE integration?</p>
  
  <p>And do I get a badge for being the first to create the absurd tag combination of [<strong>vb6</strong>] and [<strong>git</strong>]?</p>
