IBMi convert file members to stream files for git 1) Create Physical File triggers on the libraries you want to monitor 2) Triggers run ConvertAllMembersToStreamFiles.PGM which runs 3) CopyMembersToStreamFiles.php which is a PHP script that runs through an array of file members to run through CPYTOSTMF

ConvertAllMembersToStreamFiles.PGM

This may copy files to disk when a program is saved. But how do you push the program back to IBMi when it is changed on the disk (e.g. after merging someone else's changes with yours)
