Mike Heins has done some really great work in 4.9 in this vein, if I 
understand it correctly.  You might try downloading it and checking out the 
'Content' section.

Another method is to use CVS, with two separate catalogs, each one as a 
branch of the source code.  Then I merge the development changes into the 
live catalog.  The CVS how-to I wrote doesn't cover it very well, but it 
might help you get started.

An updated version is available at:

http://www.icdevgroup.org/~danb/ic_howto_cvs.html

And I'll be committing it to the IC docs RSN.

Best,
Dan
