Is there a solution to version control the work done in Toolset?

I really love using your toolset. It started with Types, but now I also use Views regularly.

Is there anyway to version control… well, anything? When using my own template files locally I can try things out quickly knowing I can quickly undo in Sublime if it doesn't work out. And of course I use GIT though out the process.

But there is not way to do the same when working directly in WP, and I can see it becoming more of an issue, certainly with the announcement of Layout.

Another issue I have is syncing changes with my live and development servers. The live server is full of changing information, and I don't want to risk uploading an old table and wiping out user data. I do use MigrateDB when building and testing, but once the site is live I make changes on the live site.

One thing I sometimes do if I am making significant changes to a View is to copy and paste it into a text file locally. But this type of cowboy coding, does feel a little "backwards"

A "revisions" like functionality as used with WP posts to view changes and by who, would be a great start.

I am curious to hear how other people manage version control, or if there is a solution i am missing?

Is it something the Toolset team has discussed?
