Git integration: Create a branch

You can create a new branch from the branch that is already checked out for a project.

  • A Git repository associated with the project
  • The source/parent branch must be checked out.
  1. Go to SnapLogic Manager.
  2. In the navigation tree, locate the project, and click the down arrow to display the menu.
    Project menu
  3. Select Checkout Git Repository.
  4. Configure the Git Repository Checkout settings.
    Git Repository Checkout dialog - create a new branch
    • Repository. Select the repository that will contain the new branch.
    • Branches/Tags. Enter the name of the branch to create.
    • Hard Reset. Select this checkbox to replace all assets in your project/project space with the ones in your git repository. This discards all uncommitted changes (modified or conflicting assets) and the assets in Added, Tracked, or Removed status from your project/project space.
    • Discard Untracked Files. With the Hard Reset checkbox selected, select this checkbox to delete all untracked files from your project/project space during the checkout.
    Important: You can select Hard Reset and leave Discard Untracked Files unchecked if you want to retain a set of assets but not track them.
  5. Click Checkout.
The Git Integration creates a new repository branch based on the existing branch.
