      The two examples I can think of is ColorForth[1] (not sure what the representation is there, or how/if one would couple it with a (D)VCS), and of course Smalltak with it's DVCS Monticello:

      http://news.squeak.org/2008/08/15/all-new-monticello-2/

      I had no idea there was such a new rewrite (2008), but then I keep forgetting that DVCS are rather new (as in popular, free-software DVCS are pretty new - git is just over 10 years).

      [1] http://www.colorforth.com/cf.htm [It would appear that the on-disk representation is rather simple and straight forward, but you're only supposed to use a ColorForth aware editor (eg: ColorForth)]

      Well there are ports of Squeak (Smalltalk) Cog VM on Android (CogDroid [1]), and to iOS (see e. g. [2]) which are capable of running recent Squeak and Pharo images and are development environments on their own. (Disclaimer: I am a co-developer of [1])
