Organize LabVIEW in a git repository

Question

I'm forced to work with LabVIEW source code on a Windows 7 machine and am curious what might be the best setup to handle the source code in a remote Git repository.

Currently I'm handling everythin like I would with my C projects, means Git Bash and a simple .gitignore file that excludes .aliases and .lvlps files, but think that there might be some possible improvement.

Thanks for every suggestion.

If you have LV professional you can get diff and merge to work using

I use this together with git bash.
