Hi Dileep,
Data are not migrated through Version control, but only jobs are.

Please confirm if you are migrating the jobs or the data from one server to the other.

If you are migrating the data then we can use a simple command to tar and then... scp to migrate the data form one server to the other.

If you are migrating the Data Stage jobs then Yes, version control can be used to migrate the job across the env....

Where and how are these data stored?

Most sites don't migrate data from development to test environment at all. Instead, the test data are a sample from the production environment.
