I'm not a developer, but I also see as native the development that is based on Libc and Qt.
Qt 4.6 framework (http://trac.netlabs.org/qt4) is native for OS/2 (it runs over PM and CPI and it is not intepretated code) and it ofers a very rich set of GUI functions.
Also the GNU C (GCC - http://os2ports.smedley.id.au/index.php?page=gcc-v4-9-x) compiler and his LibC library (ported from Linux), is also native, it run over OS/2's CPI and has a good set of C functions.
I look this two tools/libraries/frameworks with good eyes for the OS/2-eCS platform.

By the way QtCreator (IDE) looks also very interesting for OS/2-eCS. There is also ported QtDesigner to create GUI in a graphic way.

I would suggest git for all your development. No matter if you manage your repository on your own server or on some public sites. BUT currently git for OS/2 lacks a decent GUI. You can use older versions of smartgit (needs Java6) to check out (pull) and browse repositories but have to use CLI commands to check in (push).
Second best option IMHO is SVN. I use SmartSVN for managing both local and remote repositories. If you develop something interesting for other OS/2 - eCS users you can ask Adrian to manage your SVN project at netlabs.org. Private repositories can be handled at your own server. You have to set up the svn server on one of your systems. IIRC I've written down the necessary steps at wiki.netlabs.org.
At this time I would not vote for CVS anymore. It's so ancient and misses current needs.
Unfortunately we do not have version control integrated like TortoiseSVN or TortoiseGit on Win. Although it seems to be not very complicated to extend WPS menus in a similar way no one have done it right now.

What version of SmartGIT do you use, and where did you get the old version?

Hi Neil
They have the archive here: http://www.syntevo.com/smartgit/download-archive
