Github extension for Dreamweaver

[thoru49184056]

A week ago a dialog box popped up in my Dreamweaver asking if I wanted to test out a new extension for Git within Dreamweaver. I clicked 'no' but now I want to try using it and cannot seem to find anything about it now! Was I hallucinating? Did anyone else see this or try it?

[Nancy OShea]

You were not hallucinating.

any way to get that option back or will i need to wait now?

[Nancy OShea]

You might try closing & re-opening DW a few times to see if it returns.  I don't know how to manually force in app updates / messages to appear.   I have not found a switch for it.

Thanks Nancy! I have tried that already. I even reset the 'help' or 'tour' messages in hopes that would do it. Oh well!

Is this what you are looking for?

Welcome to the Dreamweaver Prerelease Program! We're really excited to bring to you Git integration in Dreamweaver. With the first build of Dreamweaver Prerelease, you can work with a local repo by initializing Git, modifying site files inside your repo, staging and committing your changes - all of it right from within Dreamweaver.

Try Adobe Prerelease

Thanks Ben. That is the right spot! Sadly this one is not available anymore though.

It works for me

I have been working with it for over two weeks

Paula: Thank you for bringing this post to my attention.

Thoru: I have no idea why you are not able to access it. I am able to do it just fine.

Are you sure you are logging in with the correct credentials?

If everything is fine, and the link isn't working for you, send me your Adobe ID with which you log into the prerelease forum. I will check with the team and get back to you.

Thanks,

Preran

That message also popped up for me. . .once two or three weeks ago. But I wasn't interested in testing it.

Rob, I was hoping that would take up the offer, there are many great things in the pipeline and the more people that test the offerings the better it will be all round. Adobe is listening!

Yes, but I have no real world need for it, so I didn't think my participation would be helpful.

Your input would be helpfull Rob, as you should we say, know more on a particular web tech than I

For me, nothing of interest.

No comment.

To the OP,

You should try sending a PM to Preran​ who may be able to pass your details to the Dw pre-release team.

Ha, i am an idiot!....I found it. I gave it a quick glance and didnt see that Green box icon that I am so used to seeing with DW.

Thank you everyone!
