Learn how to view, add, and delete your git repositories in Cloud Manager.

About repositories in Cloud Manager overview

Repositories in Cloud Manager are used to store and manage your project’s code using Git. For every program you add, an ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ-managed repository is automatically created.

In addition, you have the option to create more ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ-managed repositories or add your own private repositories. All repositories linked to your program can be viewed on the Repositories page.

Repositories created within Cloud Manager can also be selected when adding or editing pipelines. For more information on configuring pipelines, see CI-CD Pipelines.

Each pipeline is linked to a primary repository or branch. However, with Git submodule support, multiple secondary branches can be included during the build process.

View the Repositories page repositories-window

On the Repositories page, you can view details about the selected repository. This information includes the type of repository in use. If the repository is marked as ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ, it indicates that it is an ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ-managed repository. If it is labeled as GitHub, it refers to a private GitHub repository that you manage. Additionally, the page provides details such as when the repository was created and the pipelines associated with it.

To take action on a selected repository, you can click on the repository and use to open a drop-down menu. For ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ-managed repositories, you can Check Branches / Create Project.

Drop-down menu on the Repositories page.

Other available actions on the drop-down menu include Copy Repository URL, View & Update, and Delete the repository.

Cloud Manager supports two types of repositories: ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ-managed repositories (ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Repository) and self-managed repositories (Private Repository). The required fields for setup vary depending on the type of repository you choose to add. For more information, see the following:

There is a limit of 300 repositories across all programs in any given company or IMS organization.

Access repository information repo-info

When viewing your repositories in the Repositories window, you can view the details on how to access the ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ-managed repositories programmatically by clicking the Access Repo Info button on the toolbar.

The Repository Info window opens with the details. For more information on accessing repository information, see Accessing Repository Information.

Check Branches / Create Project check-branches

In AEM Cloud Manager, the Check Branches / Create Project action serves two purposes, depending on the current state of the repository.

Copy Repository URL copy-url

The Copy Repository URL action copies the URL of the repository selected in the Repositories page to the clipboard to be used elsewhere.

View & Update a repository view-update

The View & Update action opens the Update Repository dialog box, where you can view the repository’s Name and Repository URL preview. Additionally, it lets you update the Description of the repository.

Delete a repository delete

The Delete action removes the repository from your project. A repository cannot be deleted if it is associated with a pipeline.

Deleting a repository makes its name unusable for any new repositories created in the future. If you attempt to add a repository using the same name of a deleted repository, you encounter the following error message:

Repository name should be unique within organization.

Additionally, the deleted repository is no longer available in Cloud Manager and cannot be linked to any pipelines.
