A source control indicator appears adjacent to the package name indicating that the package definition is added to GitHub and checked in. Any child packages and non-versioned items in the package are ignored and not added to GitHub. For a shared classification group that is added to GitHub as part of the package, the source control indicator appears as read-only; it does not appear for a classification group.
When adding a package to GitHub, the document and activity variants are added to GitHub as part of the extraction group, form variants as part of the form and skins as part of the process. The variants and skins are not marked as being in GitHub within the Designer.
From the context menu options of the package that is added to GitHub, you can check out, check in, and get the latest version of the package.
The file size to check in to GitHub cannot exceed 100 MB.
