Unfortunately, files arent versioned (like workflows) and it's not
currently possible to update a file. Its an issue we intend to deal with,
however we've not scheduled the work so we cant give a clear idea when.

myExperiment has no support for these external version control systems.

I guess if you are intending on developing the plugin further then
you'd be better off publishing it elsewhere. You could link to it from
the description of your existing entry. However, I can correct the error
in your existing file, if you wish.
