How to Connect Eclipse with Git or abapGit and Push ABAP Code to GitHub for ABAP Cloud project

[Ayyaparaja]

I'm working on an ABAP development project and would like to integrate version control using GitHub.

I’m specifically looking to push ABAP code to GitHub directly from Eclipse using either Git or the abapGit plugin.

What I've done so far:

• Installed Egit plugin in Eclipse via the Marketplace.

• Installed the abapGit plugin in Eclipse following the SAP Developers guide:
  https://developers.sap.com/tutorials/abap-install-abapgit-plugin.html

I'm trying to understand:

• Can I push ABAP code directly from Eclipse ADT to GitHub?

• If yes, what are the exact steps to do this using either Git or abapGit in Eclipse?

• If not, what is the recommended way to use GitHub for ABAP version control (especially in ABAP cloud  project)?

Hi,

this tutorial provides information about how to install the abapGit Plugin to transfer ABAP development objects between a Git repository and an SAP S/4HANA Cloud, ABAP Environment instance or an SAP BTP, ABAP Environment instance.

Does this help?

Kind regards,

Wolfgang

Hi Wolfgang,

Thanks for sharing the tutorial — it was helpful for installing the abapGit plugin in Eclipse.

However, I could only find the installation steps.
Could you please share the steps to connect Eclipse with a Git repository for ABAP code?

I'm specifically looking to understand how to push ABAP code from Eclipse (ADT) to GitHub for version control.

Thanks in advance!

Hi, I am sorry, that I did not see that you already had installed the plug-in that I recommended you. I am already in contact with our expert and we try to get back to a.s.a.p. Kind regards, Wolfgang
