# Git

Kalipso Studio includes integrated Git version control, allowing you to manage your project directly from the IDE. Git integration enables you to track changes, collaborate with team members, and maintain a complete history of your project's development.

The Git tab in the Ribbon provides access to all version control operations:

* **Open Repository** - Opens an existing Git repository from a local folder
* **Create Repository** - Creates a new Git repository for your project
* **Repository** - Opens the Repository window to view repository details, branches, and commit history
* **Commit** - Commits your changes to the local repository
* **Pull** - Downloads changes from the remote repository to your local repository
* **Push** - Uploads your local commits to the remote repository
* **Branches** - Manages branches in your repository
* **Merge** - Merges changes from one branch into another

## Getting Started

To start using Git with your Kalipso project:

1. **Create a new repository** - Use "Create Repository" to initialize Git for your project, or
2. **Open an existing repository** - Use "Open Repository" if your project is already under version control

Once your project is connected to a Git repository, you can:

* Track all changes made to your project files
* Commit changes with descriptive messages
* Push changes to a remote server (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, etc.)
* Pull changes made by other team members
* Work with multiple branches for different features or versions

## Subpages

* [Repository](/kalipso/documentation/git/repository.md) - View and manage repository information
* [Commit](/kalipso/documentation/git/commit.md) - Save changes to the repository
* [Pull / Push](/kalipso/documentation/git/pull-push.md) - Synchronize with remote repositories
* [Branches](/kalipso/documentation/git/branches.md) - Create and manage branches
