Version Control Systems
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
Introduction
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Godot aims to be VCS friendly and generate mostly readable and mergeable files.
|
|
Godot also supports the use of version control systems in the editor itself.
|
|
However, VCS in the editor requires a plugin for the specific VCS you are using.
|
|
VCS can be setup or shut down in the editor under **Project > Version Control**.

Official Git plugin
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
Using Git from inside the editor is supported with an official plugin.
|
|
You can find the latest releases
|
|
`here <https://github.com/godotengine/godot-git-plugin/releases>`__. Documentation on how to use the Git
|
|
plugin can be found
|
|
`here <https://github.com/godotengine/godot-git-plugin/wiki>`__.
|
|
|
|
Files to exclude from VCS
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
There are some folders Godot creates you should have your VCS ignore:
|
|
|
|
- ``.import/``: This folder stores all the files it imports automatically based on
|
|
your source assets and their import flags.
|
|
- ``*.translation``: These files are binary imported translations generated from CSV files.
|
|
- ``export_presets.cfg``: This file contains all the export presets for the
|
|
project, including sensitive information such as Android keystore credentials.
|
|
- ``.mono/``: This folder stores automatically-generated Mono files. It only exists
|
|
in projects that use the Mono version of Godot.
|
|
|
|
Working with Git on Windows
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
Most Git for Windows clients are configured with the ``core.autocrlf`` set to ``true``.
|
|
This can lead to files unnecessarily being marked as modified by Git due to their line endings being converted automatically.
|
|
It is better to set this option as::
|
|
|
|
git config --global core.autocrlf input
|
