If the repositories you want to use are independent of each other and don't need to be part of the same solution, you might want to use a folder to open them. Then, you can adjust the Project References as necessary. csproj file for another project that has a repository initialized.Īfter the project's added, Visual Studio detects and activates the second repo. Right-click the solution in Solution Explorer, and then select Add > Existing Project. Open one of your existing solutions that already has a repository initialized. Here's how to create a solution with multiple repositories:
You can activate multiple repositories from either a solution or a folder. For example, you can specify whether to prune remote branches during fetch.Īctivate multiple repos from a solution or a folder You can use the Git Repository Settings page to specify your options for each repository. This same dialog allows you to exercise more control over other network operations, like fetch and pull. Once you’re ready to commit, the network operations dialog makes it easy to specify the exact branch you’re pushing to and reorder your pushes. Also, you can perform inner loop branching operations like merging, rebasing, renaming, deleting, and comparing branches by right-clicking the branch to open the context menu.Īnd, you can perform more advanced repository and branch management operations in the Git Repository window. All you need to do is select the branch you’d like to check out. You can use the branch pickers in the status bar and the Git Changes tool window to switch branches. You can stage and commit as you typically would.
Then, as you make changes, the Git Changes window tracks your work separated by repository. You can create your branches across several repositories at one time by using the extended branch creation dialog. You can manage your multi-repo scenarios the same way as you would in working with a single repository. Multi-repository support extends the capabilities of the Git Changes and Git Repository windows.
