Source Control allows you to track and manage updates to your code. It gives you the control to manage the right version of the code. PCC allows your to setup Source Control to your projects.
For compliance reasons, the Linux Foundation platform needs to have access to each GitHub organization you use to host your code. Your governance body and authorized community members will still be responsible and accountable for day-to-day administration of repositories, teams, and users, unless covered by a specific managed-services-agreement with the Linux Foundation.
You can setup the following Source Controls tools to your projects:
GitHub
GitLab
You can use GitHub as a source control tool to manage your project.
To setup the GitHub account to your project, perform the following steps:
1.Login into PCC.
2. Search for the required project. The Project dashboard appears. Click Source Control from the IT SERVICES STATUS tab.
4.The Connect GitHub Organization dialog box appears. Enter the Organization Name and click Connect.
5.Once the connection is setup, you can see the status of GitHub project and its repositories.
If the Organization name is changed in the GitHub, you need to connect the renamed organization again. The renamed organization wont be automatically connected even though the organization with the old name was connected.
Your project should have its own GitHub organization, separate from your company's GitHub organization, and which is not shared with other, non-Linux-Foundation projects. If you need to, create a new GitHub organization for this project, and have a user who is an owner in both organizations transfer each project repository to this organization.
Then, invite the user “thelinuxfoundation” as an owner at the organization level (not per repository) to the GitHub organization, and connect them in Project Control Center.
You can delete the added GitHub organization from the PCC.
To delete the GitHub organization that is added in the PCC, perform the following:
1.Login into PCC.
2.Click the Source Control.
3.Under GitHub, click on the required GitHub organization that you want to delete.
5.The Confirm Disassociation dialog box appears, click Delete to delete the GitHub Organization.
You can use GitLab as a source control tool to manage your project.
To setup the GitLab account to your project, perform the following steps:
1.Login into PCC.
2. Search for the required project. The Project dashboard appears. Click Source Control from the IT SERVICES STATUS tab.
4.The Connect GitLab Group dialog box appears. Enter the Group Name and click Connect.
5.Once the connection is setup, you can see the status of GitLab project and its repositories.
