Git is a very popular distributed version control system. UEStudio offers robust Git integration so that you can directly interact with Git repositories from within the application. You can learn more about Git and read over its full documentation at the [https://git-scm.com/ official Git website].

In order to use Git with UEStudio, you need to have a Git client installed. [https://git-scm.com/download/win Git for Windows] is recommended.

If you already have Git for Windows installed on your system, then on first run UEStudio will detect this and prompt you to import your Git credentials. Otherwise, you can [[#Configuring Git|configure Git]] in UEStudio's settings.

Once Git is properly configured on your system, you can then begin interacting with repositories and objects through two different methods:

# Browse to a Git repo folder in the "Explorer" tab of the [[File view|Workspace Manager]].
# Add a Git repo folder to your project and view it in the "Project" tab of the [[File view|Workspace Manager]].

In both cases (if Git integration is configured in UEStudio properly) UEStudio will display the repo folder with a special Git icon overlay. If in a project, UEStudio will display the current branch and commits ahead/behind directly beneath the folder name.

Additionally, a special "Git" sub-menu is available in the context menu for files/folders under Git in the "Explorer" and "Project" tabs. This sub-menu contains many commands for interacting with the Git repository.

===Creating and cloning repositories===
* To '''create a new Git repository''', right-click on the folder where you want to initialize the repository, and select '''Git''' » '''Create/initialize repository here'''. The hidden ".git" subfolder will be created, and you can begin adding, staging, and committing files.
* To '''clone an existing Git repository''', right-click on the folder where you want to clone the repository and select '''Git''' » '''Clone repository...''' This will open the "Clone repository" dialog where you can enter the full path or the URL (SSH or HTTP[S]) to the repository. This dialog also contains the following options:
** '''Branch''' This option allows you to specify which branch to switch to when cloning a repository. If left empty, or if a branch is provided that doesn't exist, this will default to the HEAD branch.
** '''Depth''' This option allows you to create a '''shallow''' clone where the repository history is truncted to the specified number of revisions. For example, if you enter "2" here, the history for only the last 2 revisions will be available in your locally checked out repository.
** '''No checkout''' This option will clone the repository ''without'' checking out a branch, essentially creating a disconnected Git branch.
** '''Recursive''' This option will clone the repository along with any submodules contained within it.
