I've been experimenting with making a plugin for AGS that incorporates git support into the editor. It was started on a random idea so don't expect any planned out specifications or something like that. I'm still trying to figure out if it's possible.
Anyone can check it out and test it out,, as well as contribute to the project. It was developed in Visual Studio 2013 Express for Desktop. If it sounds interesting then using the github repo to suggest/discuss implementaions would be appropriate.
Information about making a plugin from scratch can be found on the AGS page, although it's complete in its current form, there are also other information or plugin projects availabe on the forums.
To test the plugin you'll need to open the project in Visual Studio, compile, then copy the .dll into the directory you've installed AGS.
After doing some research it seems that this is more trouble than it's worth with AGS lacking in .NET capabilites. This makes it impossible to use certain frameworks that would be well suited for the job. Also the editor itself seems to be missing dynamic refreshing so it doesn't pick up on changes from outside itself.
