In a workspace, you can run Git commands that require user authentication like cloning a remote private Git repository or pushing to a remote public or private Git repository.
User authentication to a Git server from a workspace is configured by the administrator or, in some cases, by the individual user:
-
Your administrator sets up an OAuth application on GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, or Microsoft Azure Repos for your organization’s {prod} instance.
-
As a workaround, some users create and apply their own {kubernetes} Secrets for their personal Git-provider access tokens or configure SSH keys for Git operations.
