"you can already build such a system yourself quite trivially by getting an FTP account, mounting it locally with curlftpfs, and then using SVN or CVS on the mounted filesystem"
Oh, thanks bro.
I do cycling nearly every day and bench/squat/deads Mon-Wed-Fri.
Oh yes, the great inspiring Marissa Mayer, the woman who rushed into Yahoo! and banned work from home but for anyone but herself and and had a daycare in her oversized office.
And then proceeded to run Yahoo into the ground.
I'd prefer not to listen to anything she has to say.

If you keep doing the same things, you'll keep getting the same results. Meditation can rewire you for mindfulness - and that doesn't always mean sitting and meditating - but everyone should have a practice. Get out into nature, ride a bike, learn how to play guitar. Work on something completely different than APIs/IDEs/OSes/hacking.
I also recommend THC. Weed candy in particular, when I take about 10mg, I get a constant flow of interesting ideas and correlations for hours afterwards.
When you attain that mindfulness it's easier to guide your mind where you want it (in this case, solving technical problems). Good luck.
What about alcohol or caffeine?
