The app code is self-contained in a sub-directory of web2py. As I'm a Mercurial geek, I maintain an hg repo in that subdirectory, and clone the repo to a backup machine. I do some editing with the appadmin editor, and some with emacs (as suits the moment). I have a development machine and a "production" machine (both are machines are for lab use, hence the quote-marks), and have been using Fabric (www.fabfile.org) as a deployment tool.
