Consider using a source control system like Git and a collaborative forge like GitHub to manage team collaboration, or just make a copy of the file somewhere else.
Backup your work to avoid losing everything. Use a proper merge tool (like WinMerge), to merge between folders, and update modified vanilla files to a new vanilla patch. So choose a name, no one else will ever use, like the name of your mod. (Your files can have any name, all files in the folder will be loaded by the game. Minimize overwrites of vanilla files by adding separate files and loading from folders whenever possible, to improve mod compatibility and maintenance. 
Use a good text editor (like Notepad++, Sublime Text, or Visual Studio Code) to edit files and search into multiple files. 
Never modify game files: use a mod even for small changes, and never modify directly game files in Steam Hearts of Iron 4 folder, as your changes may be undone without warning.
