I'm not sure what Rational Developer is likely to want to do in
terms of getting the edited files back to the AS400 (assuming it
supports that directly). Are you planning to run (j)git on the AS400
or have another step to get the code from a central git repo back to
the AS400(s)?

Since I work with, but am not a part of, the AS400 group, I don't have
a copy of Rational to play with. I have used Websphere Studio before,
though (which I think is the precursor to Rational/eclipse) and it
used the toolbox utilities (JT400 et al) to transfer files locally,
allow the developer to work on the file, then put them back on the
server where they can be compiled. I would assume Rational works
similarly. This is making me wonder whether any open source scm will
work for this scenario. We may be tied to IBM's tools or nothing.

I hope I'm not stating the obvious here, but "Rational" is a division
within IBM, not a product. IBM Rational has two solutions for version
control, ClearCase and Team Concert. The latter does a lot more than
just version control though, and it seems to be shipped with Rational
Developer. Just to be clear, which product(s) are they considering?
