Iguana X IguanaX stores all local component repositories in a single repos directory in your working directory. The repos directory contains individual folders for each component, storing the project files (including custom fields and their default values, sample data, and database files added to your component projects).

You can backup this single directory to backup all components and their associated project files on your instance. This directory can be found in:

<instance<working directory>/repos/

Due to the way Iguana X IguanaX leverages git (How does Iguana X use Git?) , you can also connect each one of your components to an upstream repository in Bitbucket to backup your components.

The commit you select to run each component on is stored in the run directory. It is recommended to backup this entire directory to save the running commits. If not backed up, during the restore process, all components would be set to run from the DEVELOPMENT commit.

This directory can be found in:

<instance<working directory>/run/

See Choosing the code to run for your component for context on selecting component commits.
