Version control
Create versions of a project by committing changes that you make. By default, all projects have version control.
Version control uses two types of repositories:
- Local repository. A repository on your local computer where you commit changes to the project. The repository backs up the contents of the project.
- Remote repository. If a system uses local version control only and you want to allow multi-user collaboration or the ability to version the project remotely, configure a remote repository. Remote repositories are external to the project.Supported version control providersProviderCloudOn-premisesAzure® DevOpsBitbucket™GitHub®GitLab®
You can open projects that are not versioned with a supported local or remote repository, but you will not be able to version those projects. You can version projects externally using the CLI and GUI tools supported by a version control provider.
Use a local or remote repository to restore a previous version of a project and discard changes that you do not want to implement. From a remote repository, you can view and accept changes other users make to a project, or pull changes pushed by another user to view and implement changes in the pull preview editor before you push your changes.
