  Hi,
  I'm trying to devise a robust source control process for SSRS 2016 inc. shared data sources, colours, rdls, mobile reports.  Around 200 reports.
  In the past I've used Visual Studio report projects and checked these into source control.
  This isn't practical for current gig as there are many report folders with a need to share data sources across many reports in different folders.
  I've looked at a powershell script to create a back-up of the report server - this can be automated as part of a build script but it's not ideal.
  I wonder if anyone had any better ideas?
  Lee

  This article up here on SSC is an interesting approach - worth looking at. You may want to read the discussion as well as there are other ideas presented:
