Azure DevOps merge using Git extension

[TanmeyTWX]

Hi Folks,

I have tried using Git extension to push changes from Composer to Azure Devops branch and observed that it pushes all the changed entities and don't have any option to push only specific entities.

I am looking for a kind of selection of individual entities instead of all entities of all the developers.

Please let me know if anyone came across similar requirement with multi-developers environment or any option other than Git extension to merge updated entities with Devops branch?

TIA.

Hi,

I think you need to manually put the updated/newly added extension file to the folder in repo which is generated by Git extension.

In the new git hub extension we have some provision for selecting the entities I guess pls give it a try, I remember seeing a popup while you can select entities

also if you dont want to permanently move any entity (like users etc)to git you could update the gitignore files

Correct. Since GitBackup Extension 4.0.0, released in August 2020, users can select which entities they would like to export (and in turn Push).
