Switch to Beta Channel now to update your Studio with shiny new features

How do we use the Git feature in 2019.3? I keep getting error not able to connect to the repository. Is there some documentation?

@vincebhleo i got it to work. You have to mention the same folder as the repository where you have the xaml files. Then it gets connected without any issue
But if we mention the project parent folder it throws an error.

My xaml files is already in the parent folder. I got the error below:

GIT: UiPath.Studio.Contracts.RecoverableException: Unable to clone from the given repository. Please make sure that the remote is available and try again. —> LibGit2Sharp.LibGit2SharpException: target OID for the reference doesn’t exist on the repository

I’m using a private Github and switch to public too but doesn’t work. What did you use?

I’m also using a private Github repository. That works fine…

What I did is, I opened the solution in Studio, navigated to Teams → Clone a remote repository → then gave the repository URL, and the credentials and it was all fine… Not quite sure why it gave an error for you :thinking:

Git integration looks awesome so far, however I’m getting some strange behaviour. I’ve already previously connected my work to a GitHub repo and use the ā€œGitHub for Desktopā€ program to pull/push all my UiPath files. I’ve never connected my Studio to this account but it somehow knows how to push to the right place already. There is also no option to disconnect it (it is greyed out). So is it possible it’s reading my existing repo automatically? Is there somewhere we can provide feedback specific to this? I’m not sure if this is the right place or not.

Hi @AWoz

Could you give it a try on 2019.4.0? It should allow you to disconnect the project from GIT.

And yes, indeed - Studio will automatically detect if a project is under Git source control, even if it was cloned with a different tool.

Hi @loginerror,

It now allows me to disconnect :slight_smile:. However, there is a minor issue where on hover, the disconnect button description still says ā€œDisconnect is not availableā€¦ā€. This occurs in the yellow highlighted area in my screenshot below. Other areas provide correct messages:

Seems like the functionality works, just a minor bug with the text as far as I can tell.

Disconnect your Robot from Orchestrator, restart Studio and the option should be visible then.

Hi @miketong44

It would seem that you have the Enterprise installer which has the auto-update disabled.

Only the Studio Community Edition installed via the .exe instaler can auto-update.

I hope it clarifies the behaviour :slight_smile:

Sure. Thanks for the explanation. Could you tell me, how could i then install the Fast Track version?

Of course. The easiest way to get your latest Enterprise MSI installer is to navigate here:
https://platform.uipath.com/portal_/resourceCenter

You will need to create a Cloud account for that.

Another way is to ask our technical support directly (who would also be able to provide earlier versions), but it is much slower solution and should be mostly considered only for specific cases (when you need specific version to match your current setup).
