VERSION CONTROL

Git Mastery Guide

Our integrated Git Wizard simplifies version control, allowing you to focus on code while we handle the complexity of the terminal.

Opening the Terminal

To begin using Git, you first need to access the integrated terminal. This is your gateway to powerful command-line tools.

  • 1

    Locate the Terminal icon () in the bottom navigation bar of the editor.

  • 2

    Tap the icon to slide up the console interface. You now have full shell access.

The Git Wizard

Instead of memorizing complex commands like git remote add origin ..., use our automated wizard.

WIZARD_PROMPT
$ git configure
# or simply...
$ git

What the wizard does:

The wizard automates repository initialization, user identity configuration (user.name/email), and secure connection to remote providers like GitHub or GitLab.

Authentication

To push code to GitHub, the wizard will ask for a Personal Access Token (PAT). This is more secure than using your password.

Generating your Token

  1. 1. Go to GitHub Settings > Developer Settings.
  2. 2. Select Personal access tokens > Tokens (classic).
  3. 3. Click "Generate new token".
  4. CRITICAL: Ensure you check the 'repo' scope to allow project access.
  5. 4. Copy the token and paste it when the app terminal prompts you.

Pro Tip: Forget manual remotes

Manual commands like git remote add are generally not needed. The Git Wizard handles your remotes automatically based on the repository URL you provide during the configuration step.
