1. A tangible computer storage medium encoded with a program of instructions executable by a processor, the program of instructions comprising:
- a context information agent for retrieving context information associated with an open file, wherein;
the open file was checked out of a source control repository; and
the context information comprises a location of the at least one open file and the identity of the source control repository; and
a file movement agent for backing up;
the at least one open file from the location to a first server adapted for backing up and storing the at least one open and file; and
the context information to the first server.

13. A computer-implemented method for backing up at least one open file of a source control repository, the computer-implemented method comprising:
-
requesting context information for at least one user of at least one open file, wherein the at least one open file was checked out of the source control repository by the at least one user; receiving context information relating to at least one open file of the at least one user, wherein the context information comprises the identity of the source control repository; determining, by a computer system, a location of the at least one open file from the context information; retrieving the at least one open file; and storing the at least one open file and the context information on a server. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16)
