Use GitHub file manager

When the source control is turned on, the file manager displays the list of items that are under source control from the selected GitHub folder. Use the GitHub file manager to get the latest version of items, check in and check out individual items or all items at one go.

  • The document variants, activity variants, form variants, and skins are not listed as individual items and are considered as part of the extraction group or process.

  • When you change your working directory, the list is updated accordingly.

  1. Configure the GitHub access and set up the GitHub integration.
  2. Navigate to System > GitHub file manager.

    The GitHub file manager page displays the list of artifacts and packages that are under source control from the selected working folder. The packages and items that are added to the selected working folder by any resource are displayed showing the following details: Item name, type, last modified date (GitHub), last modified by (GitHub), checked out to, and the last check-in comment.

  3. Do either of the following:
    • To get the latest version of, check in, or check out an individual item/package, select the check box for that item and click the relevant button (Get latest, Check in or Check out) or select the option from the context menu of the item.

    • To select multiple items, select the check boxes for the items and click the relevant button.

    • To get the latest version of, check in, or check out all items/packages, select the checkbox on the list header and click the relevant button.

    • When you get the latest version, the items are imported into TotalAgility only if the version of items in GitHub is greater than the version in TotalAgility. If a package is selected, you can choose to import only the package definition or the definition along with the items within the package.

    • You can only check out items that are currently not checked out with another resource.

    • You can only check in items if they are currently checked out with you.
