Hi Uwe,

We do have some basic version control support (including Git, but I
don't think Mercurial).

If your document is in a Git repository, you should be able to go to
File > Version Control > Check in Changes, for example, to commit.

You can also use LyX's document comparison feature combined with Git to
compare the LyX document to a previous revision to see what changed.

LyX doesn't currently support any push/pull operations.
