Git Settings

The Git Settings section appears when creating a new resource (e.g. application component, container, library). It controls how the source code repository is initialized and managed.

There are three variants depending on how you want to set up the repository:

Variant	Description
New source code in a new repository	CodeNOW creates a new dedicated repository and populates it with code from the selected template (scaffolder). This is the default option for new projects.
New source code in an existing repository	CodeNOW scaffolds code from the template but places it inside an existing repository alongside other components (monorepo).
Link existing source code	Connect an already existing repository with source code to CodeNOW without scaffolding.
