Okay, I know how to get my Views into code and Git for deployment. But now we have to make some changes to content types and deploy them through the cycle. I'm sure there are some people on this list who have opinions on the best way to do this.
Oh, the immediate need is for D6, but I'll eventually need to know how to do this for D7 as well.

Features module gets them into code, but if you move a D6 features module to D7 the results aren't pretty. The module itself would have to be ported to use the new interfaces. I hope that this observation is wrong and would love to be contradicted. We had a special calendar view constructed as a feature on D6 and found the easiest way to move it to D7 was to recreate the view on D7 (which could then be converted to a D7 feature if we wanted to move it between D7 sites)

Thanks, Walt. At the moment there are no plans to use this for upgrading, only updating within the major version. We had thought about Features, and that sounds like pretty much the only way to go.
