Components can also be configured to be stored as plain folders or submodules within the single Git repository for the entire Git Instance.

Configuring a component as a Plain Folder means:

  • Simplified Repository Management: A single Git Instance repository tracks all components, simplifying setup, maintenance, and backups.

  • Holistic View: Commits are stored within the component project file in your Git Instance repository. Commits can be viewed on the Dashboard and Component Commit Histories.

  • Reuse component projects: Use another component’s latest commit as a method to template interfaces and share code.

  • Libraries cannot be updated across projects: While publicly available libraries can be imported, they are treated as plain folders. Updates cannot propagate automatically across multiple projects.
