Creating a RepositoryRegistry

Where to find it?

1. http:// or https:// at the beginning of the URL

Access to a private repository

Set the Private ? flag to True for a Git repository that requires authorization. You will then be prompted to enter a username and pat-token.

These credentials will be used when executing git pull by the Backend. At the time of requesting data from the external service the link will look like: https://username:pat-token@domain.com/abracadabra/test.git.

WARNING

All Users of the instance will be able to see the private repository, but only those who have credentials with a Valid level will be able to create a Repo from it. You can check your level by opening the RepositoryRegisty modal via search and clicking the Change GIT Credentials button.

INFO

Credentials are stored in an encrypted form.
