    Great post, 2 comments:
    1: You also have to set the "Version Control / Mode" to output .Meta files for VC to work properly
    2: Would be good if you can also mention other tools you can use for accessing the source, like TortoiseHG which works with the File Explorer

    Keep up the great work.

    Thanks a lot! :D

    Unity now puts "visible meta files" setting on default. Or am I missing something?

    I will look into that, glad to know! :)

    I'll double check as I just had to do a fresh install on another machine, but your screenshot shows "Hidden meta files" :D
    But still worth pointing out to ensure it is set correctly.

    My bad. I found out that there are hidden meta files enabled by default. Going to update article. :p

    Hey thanks elmar!
    Just getting into this now as I'm about to collaborate on a Unity project and it seems pretty straight forward :)

    Sadly, I've not read this all the way thru yet, but it's a valuable article.

    I'm currently using SVN for version control, have been meaning to try Git in my next project. Following your steps looks like an easy way for me to start.
