Hi,

Can anyone recommend, an easy to setup, and free version control tool for DW?

I would like to setup a local version control on my PC for the current project I ma working on.

DW CC 2017 has a git integration and i am not quite sure how to use this or if there are free way to install a local client.

Thank you...

Correct answer karpiyon

Hi and thank you,

  1. The git in the file panel is grayed out as well.
  2. I set the git path my self, later I tried to install "Git Hub Desktop" (which I removed afterward) and i think it added teh command argument "--cd=$1"
  3. Which git registry are you reffering too?
    under c:\.gitconfig i have the username, email and default text editor
    under c:\ProgramData\Git\config I have:

[core]

symlinks = false

autocrlf = true

fscache = true

[color]

diff = auto

status = auto

branch = auto

interactive = true

[help]

format = html

[rebase]

autosquash = tru


I think this problem was related to my specifc computer or its firewall setting, in case git need to communicate .

I temporarilt installed DW on another machine and all works smoothly.

Hi Karpiyon,

Creating an account in github is free. You could create an account in github, add repositories and place your code there and point your local repositories in DW to the github remotes or clone the github repo into DW.

Do you have the very latest version of DW 2017.5 yet?  GIT is integrated in the new version only.
