Git Repositories in Client Area

Overview

Git is a modern and powerful version control system used by developers to manage code changes and collaborate on projects. It allows you to track file history, roll back changes, and work in teams efficiently.

Through The Client Area, you can easily create and manage Git repositories directly for both Linux and Windows hosting without needing to access your hosting via SSH or external Git tools.

Important Note
Ensure your deployment path is set correctly to avoid overwriting production files unintentionally.
Always test deployment scripts in a development environment before using in production.
